Glamorganshire / Re: llangyfelach church records

Hi,
Well, have had a look through my diaries and can`t find when my g mother died. I think , at that time, my Mum was suffering from dementia and they died quite close together, date wise. It would be in the late 1990`s or early 2000`s.My sister might know but she`s in Australia visiting relatives at the moment.
I had wondered about calling in as I know there`s a building in the grounds near the graveyard.

Fab to receive a reply. Many thanks for your efforts, too. Yes, they were buried in the graveyard opposite Llangyfelach Church. I`d presumed both graveyards to be one and the same albeit they have a main rd. separating the two. I attended the burial and I thought I`d find it quite easily. It was an , `old ` grave and I didn`t take note of the headstone`s inscription but I don`t believe my mother had it taken away to be added to...so there would probably be no written record as far an inscription is concerned, it would solely be a recording of where my g. father`s ashes but more likely where my g. mother`s body was interred.As I mentioned, I would imagine it to have been where a faimly member had hitherto been buried...possibly with a different surname due to remarriage.Any advice given would be appreciated . Thank you.

Have grandparents buried in Llangyfelach Church. Lilian Rees and Ernest James Rees (born 1900). Lilian was born in The USA. Her parents, Thomas Rees (and ?) went from Morriston(The Graig, I believe) to live in Indiana. There they had 4 children. Two died at a young age, the third stayed there and my g mother came back to Morriston with her mother when Thomas died.
As my g mother wanted to be buried in Llangyfelach , I`m thinking that her mother and family were also buried there. Her mother married twice or three times, the last to a Bromham. I couldn`t find Lilian`s grave (and Ernest`s, buried together) when I visited the church so am wondering if they`re buried in a , `Bromham` grave. How would I find out, please?
