Beautifully presented. I also have ancestors from Lampeter and surrounds. I have confidently researched back using the early Census and burial records as the farm names match, but I am not so confident before that.

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed. Definitely pop me an email if you find we have any shared ancestors. Most of my Cardiganshire ancestors were farmers from Lampeter, Cellan, Pencarreg, Llanfair Clydogau, Bettws Bledrws, Llangybi, and Silian. Or if you ever make it over to Llanfair Clydogau and wanna get some tombstone photographs for me I'd be eternally grateful!

I remember my grandfather described his father as a foot washer? He was from Wales. Pop was not religious and happily married my Nan in an Anglican Church. Thanks for the interesting content.

It's worth noting that many Non-Conformists continued to be married in their local Anglican church after civil registration began & these entries can be found in the parish records. It was often more convenient to marry in the parish church as Non-Conformist places of worship were frequently sited in isolated locations. While some Non-Conformist ministers became licensed to perform marriages soon after civil registration, others took some time to achieve this & so their members married in churches or register offices. When searching for Non-Conformist burials, the chapels themselves may still hold these records.

Very informative, thank you. My ancestor William David Jones, was a Congregational minister in upstate New York, the grandson of the immigrant ancestor. In the 1890’s he traveled to Llangybi Parish in Canarvonshire (sp?), Wales to do some genealogy research, and printed his journal. It is fascinating reading. I’m looking forward to researching his family in depth, when I can find the time!

Oh that's awesome. You're so lucky to have all that research from your ancestor! Hopefully that free time comes soon.

Thank you Debra. My forth Great Grandfather was christen in Llangybi on April 6, 1799. It is a very small parish. His name is David Davies and his father was David John David and Mother Ann David(Dd) Thomas. I have a feeling that David Davies was also named David John David and change his name to John Davies. But I do not have enough records to prove so.

How about the Catholics in Wales? There must have been some as Saint David of Wales is broadly celebrated and Patron of Wales.

Yes, there is definitely Catholicism in Wales. I just haven't really come across it yet in my research. From what I have read, a lot of the history of Catholicism in Wales is tinged with anti-Catholic violence. As for St. David, the celebration of St. David is open to denominations beyond Catholicism. He just happened to preach Catholicism because the other major denominations in Wales weren't created until 1000 years after his death.

Not proud of this, but a several greats granduncle was Zwingli’s son-in-law, and other than as a curiosity their religions don’t figure into the reasons for my research. I already know that they all became apostate.

That's really cool. Having historical figures for ancestors can be helpful when it comes to finding records.
