Hey MEDI,

I have the original book called 'Earlier Lives' in my hands right now.
I am the great grandson of Cedric Owen and live in Perth, Australia.
The book, earlier lives, which I am currently reading contains a lot of information regarding Owen Edwards and I would be very happy to give you any information that I have access to.
Please feel free to contact me, I will give you my contact details in the case you respond to this.

Kind Regards,
Rob

Hi  Rob, Cant tell you how delighted I am to have received your message. You must be a long distance cousin in more ways than one. I would love to purchase this book, is it still in print, who are the publishers, and do you know if I can buy in this country? How was Cedric Owen  related to Owen Edwards ?  Any information you can give me I would be delighted to receive. I don't live in Anglesey, but in Pembrokeshire, about 4 hours away, but I intend to visit the island within the next couple of weeks to do some more research into that part of the family.
There is an Aunt who is 90 years old still living on a farm in the area. If you need any ancestry information, I am only to happy to help if I can. Hope to hear from you soon,
Hwyl

Hi Rob,
Just come back from Anglesey and I went to visit to visit Penrhosllugwy. It was rather late in the day and getting dark, but we did have time to go around the churchyard and found a few graves belonging to relatives although I did not find Owen Edwards as it started to get to dark to read the names. The churchyard was well kept with a few sheep wandering around, and was surrounded by fields. The village is very small but lovely, the houses set behind a large pond. I have been told that Bryneithinog no longer exists.

Waiting to hear from you with any information you may have about Owen Edwards. I hope you will be able to as I accidentally clicked the "oversubscribe to this topic" I believe you can not send any private messages until you have posted three.

looking forward to hearing from you

Laura
