Common words listed here. Including 5 doctors names and a street, might help

Keith,

Here is a link for "A Bibliography of the Cynon Valley": https://www.rctcbc.gov.uk/EN/Resident/Libraries/RelatedDocuments/ABibliographyofthehistoryoftheCynonValley.pdf

Within this is a reference to Francis Maylett Smith, which says that he worked in South Wales during 1908-1915 and suggests that the Aberffrwd of the title of his book is probably related to Mountain Ash.

Click on link and put "surgery at aberffrwd" in Search (include "   " as part of key"). Returns 3 hits - click on "83. Vol 11, nos 1-4 .....".
The final para on page 580 is interesting.
