Llanilar: Mantle Family Burials
« on: Saturday 17 November 07 17:28 GMT (UK) »

In 1871, John Mantle (born Newchapel, Llandinam in 1838) and his wife Jane (nee Charles, born Llanilar in 1937) lived at Llanilar.

It appears that John Mantle died in a Rhondda mining accident in February 1887 and the 1891 shows Jane Mantle (widow) at Glanllyn, Llanilar.

In 1901, Jane lived with her daughter (Mary Ann Morgans) at Llanilar but by the time of Jane's death on 29 March 1921 (aged 84) she was living at Chalybeate Street, Aberystwyth with her family. Her son in law, Enoch Pugh Morgans, was present at the death.

Would someone with local knowledge or a list of MI's be able to tell me if either John or Jane Mantle has a church headstone, please? I appreciate that John Mantle is likely to have been buried in the Llanilar area but Jane could be in Aberystwyth.

Thank you.
