I have recently discovered that my mother DOROTHY ELLEN
LONGDEN was born at 6 Meadow Street Llanhilleth on 30th December 1908. Her father SAMUEL
CHARLES LONGDEN was a journeyman mason, he obviously moved there temporarily with his
wife ELLEN CLARA nee HENDY [and at least 5 children] prior to my mothers birth. They
returned to the Thornbury area of Gloucestershire a few years later.Any idea why a
skilled mason would need to be in the area at that time? In the 30's I believe my mother
and father DOROTHY and MARQUIS GRAHAM LIPPIATT visited the Cwmcarn area to see relatives
[or friends] taking their baby daughter JOAN - we have a photograph. They would have
travelled by motorcycle and side car via the Aust Ferry. Any clues or information would
be welcomed. Thank you

Perhaps someone could help with the following:
My paternal grandmother KATE MARIAN HUGHES was born in Crumlin, in the then civil
parish of Abercarn!, at 26 GLENVIEW TERRACE.
In the 1891 census she is listed as 3 years old.
In the 1901 census she is listed as 13 years old.
This makes her born in 1888 if I am correct!
On the 25th of January 1908 giving her age as 21! she married HERBERT HENRY RICHARDSON at:
The WESLYAN METHODIST CHAPEL RISCA
My question is: would she have required a birth certificate for this marriage?
My reason for this question is: despite many searches by the many record offices involved with this part of Wales, and the main PRO at
Stockport, who carried out a search for me for the years 1886 through to 1888. No record of her birth is forthcoming.
Thank you

I was in FLEUR DE LYS in September 2004. I'm still in search of LEWIS ancestors
especially of WILLIAM T.LEWIS. I learned there was a TED(EDWARD) LEWIS in FLEUR De LYS who kept a shoe shop. My
grandfather, LEWIS EMRYS LEWIS often talked about a cousin who kept a shoe shop in FLEUR DE LYS. Does anyone have a
memory of a shoe shop in FLEUR DE LYS operated by a LEWIS?
