Hi Susan Treherbert is indeed in the Rhondda valleys and although there are numerous towns surrounding and hence lots of small cemeteries, it may well be that your relatives were buried in one of the nearby large municipal cemeteries. Trealaw cemetery (Porth) is only about 5 miles away or Glyntaff Cemetery (Pontypridd) is about 10 miles away. I have the burials CD for both these cemeteries and if you give me the names you have I will have a look to see if they were buried there. Regards Sian

You could ask for a look up on the National burial Index Sam Here is a website for the place you've mentioned http://www.treherbert-today.org.uk Maybe it could help you a little, what are your names? Not Williams, Evans or Griffiths hopefully :~( I have a welsh side to my tree, my dad was born in Swansea.
