Carmarthenshire Lookup Requests / Re: Newbie in Despair! Pencarreg Birth
« on: Monday 17 January 22 17:36 GMT (UK)  »
Hi CILYBLAIDD suffers from translation from the Welsh Language.

It is pronounced Kill- Blaith.

DD in Welsh sounds like TH in English and there are otehr things going on with pronuciation too which is beyond my english ears!

My hubbies Granma and Greatgma worked for the Evans's at Cilblaiidd for about 25 years each, its a long standing thing. They were Margaret Jones born about 1852 and an Margaret Mary Jones [Maggie May] born 1891.

Our Jones's lived on the other side of the Lampeter to Carmarthen Road to Cilyblaidd. The land was given to them by the Evans's in about 1910.
If you look at the map for Pancarreg you will see Ty Lynn lake. Cilyblaith is to the right of the lake on the far side of the road.

Does this answer your question, if nt please email me on Removed

When you search for information on Pencarreg its best to search both Carmarthenshire and Cardiganshire records.

This is because Pencarreg is on the border of Llanybydder [formerly spelt Llanybyther] and Lampeter, Cardiganshire.

If you need help with local geography, get back to me.

Did you know there was also a house in Pencarreg called Tyncoed?
It was a farm cottage attached to Cilblaidd Farm which was owned by the Evans family about 1900.
In 1910 it was given to Margaret Jones born 1852, a long term employee at Cilblaid, and before that she had worked on the Evans Farm at Abergorlech.
Margaret pulled down the old 'Tyncoed' at Pencarreg and build a new house that she called Glenview.
Glenview was owned by my husbands family, 'The JONES', for 70 years.
It is still standing now.
We live in the next village to Pencarreg.

there were some Nurdin's [around 1912-1950 by memory] who were Butchers from Gloucestershire and lived on Mosley Road Birmingham and were buried at St Nicholas Church Kings Norton. I came across them years ago when i was searching for my own family NERDING.
