Title: Llanbadarn Upper
Post by: chiplassie on Friday 03 February 23 00:11 GMT (UK)

Hello;
    I hope someone can help with this location in Cardiganshire.  I believe I may have found the two spinster cousins in the 1921 Census my grandfather visited in Wales in 1915.  They were born at Gorslwyd Farm, Llanbadarn Trefeglwys, Aberayron reg. district and recorded Llanbadarn Upper as their places of birth in the Census. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Regards,
  CL

Thank you both for your links to more detailed information. It explains their sister's claim that she was born Cross Inn.  I'm still wondering though if referencing Llanbadarn Upper as a birth place is also correct.
