Hi There,
 Any possibilty of keeping an eye out for Louis Mottoul, he was my Gt. Grandfather from Belgium but married a welsh girl Catherine Hobbs in May 1885 at Swansea Reg. Off. Any Mottoul would do as they must be part of my tree. He doesn't seem to appear on any census I have checked after 1881. Much appreciated, Sheila

Hello and welcome to Rootschat 
That is quite an unusual surname. If I should come across such a name.......& I am sure I will remember that one! I will of course pass the information onto you.

It may be worth your while posting all that you have (names and dates) on the main Glamorgan board incase others come across this name in the records.

All the very best in your research
Jen

Hi Jen.
how far back do your obits go.
I am looking for information from 1922.

Thanks for your posting.

My database is simply one that has been collected whilst searching. Instead of not noting all the other obituaries on the microfiche I put them into an excel database. So if you would like me to search for an obituary let me know the details.

Hi Jen.

I am looking for my great grandfathers obituary. His name was Thomas John he was killed in an accident at the Kingsdock crossing on June 16th 1922. What I am looking for are any family names of his children. Acording to the newspaper reports which I can't read properly, is he has 8 children. I thought it was his brother that died with him, but I can't find a brother named Robert.
Thomas lived at Vicarage Road Morriston and was 52 years old.
Thanks.
Julie

You mention a newspaper report in your post, do you have a date for that article?

Do you want me to look up that date for you with regards to the article you have?
I will also search for the Obit.
