Hello Phylbill
When I was a youngster living in Senghenydd our milkman was named Prosser (Jack).  He had to serve in the latter part of the war and I remember his wife used to come around early with the milk churns to fill up all our jugs! The good old days.  They had two sons, around my age who now live in Caerphilly.  I wonder if this is the same family you are trying to find out info?  I know that in the Heritage Museum in Senghenydd there are phtots of them on their touchscreens.  Next time I go down I will try to find out more info.

Hello Dingaling, If you get to Senghenydd for Centenary next year go and check out the new Heritage Centre which has all the records, info and artefacts right up to the present. Hundreds of photos on touchscreens - excellent, well worth a visit.

I have just located his (Robert William Evans) burial place ..Penyrheol Cemetery...In 2013 the 100th year anniversary will occur I hope that we can make the trip from Australia to visit Senghenydd and Penyrhoel Cemetery.
