Title: Abode of Evan & Margaret Jones
Post by: Scott_D on Friday 03 May 19 06:32 BST (UK)

Hi,
Can anyone help me decipher what it says in the 5th column of line 734 of this parish baptism record for Pentyrch, Wales? The column title is 'abode', so presumably it's a location somewhere near Pentyrch. I've also attached the full page image for comparison purposes.
Thanks,
Scott

That looks very likely to me. Great detective skills, Kay. Thanks!

I could only read bits of the writing so I looked at the map  ;)
