Just outside Tredegar on the road to Rhymney is a cemetery and at one time a row of cottages and a pub. In 1891 Daniel Watkins was living at Heathcock Cottage, Rhymney Road, Tredegar, next door to the Heathcock Inn adjacent to the Cefn Golau cemetery... this is also written as Cefngolan. There is now a council estate with the same name. I have visited the site of the inn and cottages and there is very little left to indicate they ever existed. I have yet to find any proper reference to the Heathcock Inn, but I think this is the place you are looking for. Jim

Hi Jim
Thankyou very much for your information about the cemetery, I havent been there at all. I had a look at google map of this cemetery, yes i can see it there. I dont know if her buried there.  Perhaps I could ask the  family history record office, to see if they have got buried plot with her name on it.
