Hi Marilyn

Alvar has solved the question re Tachwedt - it is welsh for November.....I
did not 'twig' when I saw this.

I cannot find him buried in Conwil Elved burials that I have upto 1875.....
they baptised their children in the parish church so you would suppose they
would be buried there too.......wonder if they are in Bethel Chapel......

speak soon Pauline
