Hi Gareth
Thanks for your reply. Your grandfather Edwin and my grt grandfather Robert were brothers. So yes you are related to my Edwards line. I have more on the Edwards than the Phillips side. My grandmother Margaret Hannah Edwards had told me that she lived down with her grand parents for a short while during child hood. They were a strong family and her cousin was mayor of Merthyr Tydfil for a while. I haven't come across the bridge in Ponty connection but you never know with this side of the family!!LOL It would be nice to have a copy of that photo if possible.
I have census info on this Edwards side of the family if you want it. I do know that on this side of the family they are connected to John Lewis stores but it may be my Grt gran Sarah Davies family as she stayed with the family . I am looking into the connection as I was told they are also connected to the Edwards line.
Some of my mother's family are from llanfalteg also and they are also Edward/s.
If you want the info I have please let me know.
It is always lovely to find connections and this site is one of the best to do so.
