I think you'd need to go to the library - the copies of old newspapers are held on microfilm, so you'd need to book a slot on a microfilm reader.  The number to ring is (01633) 656656.  You then need to trawl through the newspapers - I'll look in my notes over the weekend and see if I can find the dates of the copies she was in.
I'm doing a project at the moment on women's history in the area, and found Hettie Jones interesting as I didn't realise there were women preachers so early - if I come across any other references to her I'll let you know.

Hello,
I've recently been doing some research at Newport Reference Library, and I've been looking at copies of the South Wales Gazette from January and February 1900.  I came across a couple of small articles relating to Hettie Jones, a female preacher from Clydach (mainly praising how good her sermons are!).  Just thought I'd let you know in case you were interested in looking them up.
