Made a note of these many thanks, I’m still in shock they may not be Welsh 🙄😁 my daughter has done dna so maybe a match will come up with a link, I’ve deleted the John surname off my tree, not sure if I’ll ever crack it but many thanks.

Hello, and I apologise in advance if what follows is of no help. However, Llanwonno is a hamlet between the smaller of the Rhondda Valley and the Aberdare Valley - roughly 3 miles from where I was born and brought up. There were during my childhood day 3 houses since demolished, the Church and the Pub, which are still there. As I've seen mention of Drovers and Llantrisant - I would have been surprised if Drovers battled the mountains around Llanwonno, I walked those three miles each way often. The last time I was at Llanwonno was around 1994/5. There were some farms in that area. Again apologies for the above.
