After insisting they dont know anything about my great grandad, my family have now proclaimed that he's buried in Laliston, 30 mins from Bridgend. Ive googled, and nothing has come up apart from something about a Roman settlement. And that gives 4 spellings of Laliston. Does anyone know of this place personally?
