Found this recently, thought it may be of some interest to you. I looked through the newspapers for any further details are it reads to be continued. It would appear that the to be continued is with other reports and not on this particular case in question.

Whilst scouring the Welsh Newspapers on line I found this interesting article.

...The memorial stone was a large slab of freestone, which was lowered into its place by pulleys, immediately over the keystone of the arch surmounting the principal entrance to the
new chapel, facing St. Mary-street. The walls had already been erected to a corresponding height. M. GRIFFITHS, in presenting a silver trowel to Mr. Hopkins, stated that he had been
selected to lay the foundation stone as being the only surviving member of the church from its formation. He read the inscription on the trowel, as-follows Presented to
Thomas Hopkins, Esq., on the occasion of the laying of a memorial stone in the New Bethany Chapel, Cardiff, August 16th, 1861; he being the sole surviving member of the church at its
formation, and now in the 85th year of his age, and the 57th of his deaconship, and the 58th of his membership.

 Mr. Hopkins then, taking the trowel, proceeded to lay the stone in its place, and to give it the customary taps with a mallet after which the workmen completed the job of fixing it in its place.

Mr. Barry meanwhile had placed in a recess formed in the stone a glass jar containing the following articles Carte de visite portraits of the Revs. W. Jones, A. Tilley, and R. Griffiths, Messrs. J. Edy,
T. Hopkins, T.Rees, sen., D. Jotham, J. T. Barry, T.Jenkins, T. Rees, jun., T. Price, David James, Thomas Jones, R. Benjamin, T. Tiist, R. Evans, and Mr. W. P. James and P. Price, the builders of the chapel.

history of the rise, progress, and formation of the church......

If you read the article there is a mention of burials

I'm chasing an ancestor who was a builder in Cardiff - a newspaper report on his death mentions he was the builder of the Tabernacle in Cardiff - I'm eliminating the Chapels one by one!!

Hello, I wonder if anyone can help me with a query. I'm looking for the wife of Lutley Barneby Esq, name Charlotte Beatrice nee Davies.

Lutley Barneby's born Oct 1764 Brockhampton, Herefordshire. The family is well documented all except him! Burkes History of the Commonors of Uk & Ireland.
I believe Charlotte B Davies Barneby may have been born in Cardigan?. (I have been chasing my tail looking for a Charlotte Beatrice Davies of Cardigan for some time c 1770)
National Library of Wales  and record offices have some references to Lutley.
Lease & Release property Havod Glandwr  in Moylgrove dated 1797

I have not found a will or admin for Charlotte. I have no idea where either of them may be buried. I have not found any children born to this couple. I'm not to sure of Charlottes age. marriage states of Full age, both previoulsy unmarried. I've looked for any details on the Parish records at Find my past to no avail. My last resort would be to post on the forum in Hereford, Cardigan, Pembroke and Carmarthenshire.
I thought Lutley Barneby Esq was going to be a breeze!
Many Thanks
Jane

Are you looking at the post for the Simeon Carter Link? as this is still working, I've just checked, no problem.

Hi Osprey
Yes the name of the Chapel is Blaenwaun. Welsh spelling is Blaenywaun, which is written in documents/books.

The early Baptist chapel of Blaenywaun, at the head of Cwm Degwel, which was a powerhouse for the denomination in this part of Pembrokeshire . The large burial ground at Blaenywaun is a major resource of historical and genealogical importance, for it contains memorials to ministers, farmers, fishermen, craftsmen and their families, a valuable cross-section of the diverse community that grew in the area in recent centuries.


Also have to remember St Dogmells/St Dogmaels.

1832 the village was divided, part belonged to Pembrokeshire the other to Cardiganshire. I believe about 2003 the village became one again under Pembrokeshire.

I'm sure you are well aware of all of the above - makes research a blast!!

Jane
