death unregistered at Penrhyn Slate Quarry

[Ronron]

I know this is a long shot since the last post was in 2005.....but here it goes.  Richard Davies is related to me as well.  I recently learned this after researching my DNA and am working to connect the pieces.  I was adopted and started this research about a year or so ago.  I would love to hear from you.  Thank you

Hi I am a researcher for a programme on S4C and we may be able assist and would love to have a chat with you

clcwales has not been online here since Jul 2020 but should get an email notification of your post. When you have each made another post [just reply to this thread] you can exchange personal details like email address by personal message - to send one click the text icon under a name.

ADDED: The Llanwrst registration mentioned by Mair in 2006 is this, so probably too old. a person to have been working in the quarry! Also forename different.
