Last week I got a marr cert. The marr took place in Rehoboth Chapel, Taliesin. So I googled this hoping perhaps for a picture and location and struck gold.

Not only had some fantastic person created a village web site with loads of info including, BMD's, burials, school , history etc but another link took me to Welsh National Library at Aberystwyth where I found that a cousin of the man I am researching has deposited in the Archives all the family photos, wills, deeds etc (16 Boxes full apparently). So you know where we will be going on holiday this year!

brilliant!!! I found a website recently when trying to help a fellow member - I struck on a site that gave all the BMD for years back - gave the information on the thread - never heard another word. Never seen a site such as that before - wish I could find one for my family!

HOW Fantastic. Some people are so lucky and others like me spend hours trawling through all sorts.
Best of luck Rutland Belle - enjoy your holiday!!
