Hello Mike,

It does! - but the map for DEN on page 54 shows it just *inside* the
DEN border <g>.

And in the MGY section, page 194, under Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant. it
says "see Sir Ddinbych / Denbighshire". As you say - interesting !

I've been told that it's going to be published in conventional book
format, possibly around the middle of the year.

The question which began this thread asked about "Llanridada" (with a
question mark), Montgomery; and I think that by now we're agreed that
it probably refers to Llanrhaeadr (ym Mochnant).

Which reminds me of a query on another list, where a subscriber had
been told that her ancestor came from "Cranberries".

We eventually settled on either Llanberis or Llanferres -
unfortunately we never heard the final outcome - if there was one !
