Title: Normal College Bangor
Post by: cnerys on Saturday 28 July 07 00:14 BST (UK)

Hi,
I have just discovered that an ancestor of mine was a Vice Principal of the Normal College Bangor, definitely from the 1871 census and was still there on the 1891 census.
John PRICE b1830 Oswestry
Does anyone know if there are any websites on this College that will date back to the time John was there please? I think it is still open to teaching students today. It would be great to hear a little bit of local information regarding the place.
Kind Regards
Nerys

That is absolutely fantastic. Thanks very much for the link. John Price is mentioned many times and it will give me a little insight into his life at the College.
Many thanks again. ;D ;D

Have you seen the 1858 -1958 publication?
