Check the IGI first there seem to be a lot of your people there. 

Also Bridgend library they will give you an answer, you can email.

Possible to find people who will do look ups or 1 name studies.

Also try googling your placenames see what comes up, let me know what you come up with I have people all over Bridgend area, and need parish info soon. I would also see what Genuki have to offer, they say where most records are kept.

Also Glam records office

I tried Genuki but i got lost amongst the pages so i will try the library first before i delve into unknown waters. Thanks for the links. I have a huge family but luckily most of them were easy to find and there a lot of people still alive in Bridgend that i have not got round to contacting yet. The worst thing is i have old paperwork stored at my house in Wick but i cant get there to get it for a while as my Husband is on Detatchment till June. That would give me loads of answers and clues but i guess i will have to wait.
Thanks !!!! ;D
