   WELL HELLO CHRIS, why did I have that feeling that you would pop up? ; .
  Thank you both for looking,I have found the marraige for my g/g/grandfather REES he married at CADOXTON JUXTA NEATH and I know that PHEBE didn`t marry as she is on the 1901 census that I have here but did the others marry and move away as did REES??   Some time ago I phoned CARMARTHEN & Narbeth trying to find the birth cert of REES but he wasn`t registered, where is EGLWYSFAIR do you think he could be registered somewhere else??  many thanks again to you both   MARG,,,

  Chris, I don`t think that this Elinor  next door is anything to do with Morris and ESTHER, but there, she could be as I really don`t  know anything about this family at all,, only my g/g/grandfathers name MORRIS because it is on my g/grandparents marriage cert,, sad isn`t it   Marg,,

Eglwysfair  (St. Mary's Church) is in  Whitland.

It was a chapelry of Llanboidy until 1910 when the parish of Whitland was formed.
It's register dates from 1813.
