Hi, There is a book based on this story called The Inn of Fear by Alun Morgan, I think it's available on Amazon or try ebay, it's a good read, if you google New Inn + Merthyr Mawr there are a few hits about the story.

Don't think it's Porthcawl, don't think there have or could have been any chimneys seen from that beach, don't recall seeing any at Barry either or Aberavon, but there are places that have chimneys near Aberavon now but don't know if they can be seen from the beach area, perhaps somewhere near there?

Hi,  Aberkenfig is a village in the parish of Newcastle Higher, it's about 3 miles north of Bridgend.  Sorry couldn't find her on the 1871 but the family are not at the Colliers Arms as 1861.

The Colliers Arms is still open ;D

Hi,

It is Aberkenfig, James (the head of House) was the first born of my g. g. grandmother Hannah so also appears in my tree, if you'd like to share information please p.m. me.

Can anyone help with this, the photo was a favourite of a lady who will be 81 next week, it was accidentley knocked into the fireplace by the subject years ago, we would really appreciate any help so we can give the 81 year old something special for her birthday.  Any improvements would be nice.  Thanks in anticipation>

Hi again,

The boxes are just under where you can add Family Members, they ask for Piece:  Folio: Page:, then keywords.  (I've just double-checked this on Ancestry).  If you're still stuck, don't be afraid to come back.
