Title: Llewellyn Yorath
Post by: caroleh1 on Tuesday 24 November 09 23:30 GMT (UK)
I am looking for information on Llewellyn Yorath. He was born in approx 1735 and died sep 1801. His wife was Jane Eustance born approx 1736 amd died 1823. I am looking for any information on the parents for both Jane and Llewellyn, and their children as the only child I have information on is a son also called LLewellyn who was born 1758 and married a Margaret Morgan.
Can anyone help?

Did you watch "Coming Home" this week featuring Gabby Logan and her father Terry Yorath? There was a Llewelyn Yorath in their tree with those dates, born in Llanharry and died in St. Lythans. He was Gabby's 6x Great Grandfather.

It's available on BBC iplayer if you missed it.

Yes I did thanks, it appears to be the same one but I can't confirm that as I don't have details for any of his other children!

Have you looked at Jane's will from 1823? Or the one for her son indexed as Llewelin in 1824?

At a quick glance, Jane's will mentions daughters Jane married to Richard Robert, Anne married to William Williams, Elizabeth Richard and son Llewelyn.
