Free talk at MONKTON CHURCH HALL, on 6th APRIL 2013 at 10:30am
I received this notice from ORIELBENFRO, a valued member of the Rootschat community, who has helped many members with their Pembrokeshire research. Please make yourself known to Orielbenfro if you attend this very useful event.
I hope that plenty of people take advantage of this opportunity, and I would like to thank Orielbenfro for his sterling work.

"On the 6th April 2013 at 10:30, I shall be giving a talk on the last surviving Monkton St Nicholas Headstones and internal church Memorials. The talk will also include reference to military personal who would have a right to be, but are not listed on the Monkton Church Internal War Memorial Plaques for W.W. 1 and W.W. 2. All are most welcome to this very free talk at Monkton Church Hall.
The idea of this research came about from discussion with a member of the church restoration group, from which I hoped to produce a leaflet that could be sold to raise much needed funds, however the leaflet turned into an 87 page book.
I have at my own expense compiled and published a short run of the book to be deposited at research locations, but will not be on general sale. I have turned the results of my research into a book on CD in .pdf format. I will be passing the master copy of the CD to the Church Restoration Group for them to sell to help raise the urgent funds required. AT NO POINT WILL I BE EARNING ANY INCOME IN ANY FORM FROM THE SALES. I DID THE PROJECT JUST FOR FUN. All and any money earned will go to the church only.
At the event I will have a display of my research (See Pembrokeshire Offers) which can be viewed by visitors to the talk.
Due to health reasons this will probably be the one of the last talks/displays I shall ever give. However, if I have enough time left, I hope to complete exactly the same for St Mary and St Michael as I have done for Monkton St Nicholas, alas there will not be enough room to include the hundreds of entries of military personal from St Mary that rest at Llanion Cemetery and are included in my Military Headstone Database of 1714 to 2013.
If you can make the event, please make yourself known to me as a fellow “Rootschat” member."
