Tredegar - Colliery and Ironworks
« on: Sunday 03 April 05 13:18 BST (UK) »
Does anyone have any information on the above?

My GGrandfather was a time keeper at the colliery (William John Hughes) around 1900.

His father was a puddler (deceased), presumably at the iron works (Evan Hughes)

They lived in the Bedwelty parish.

thanks
