Berwickshire / Re: Berwickshire militia during Napoleonic war period

Good luck. I found a marriage and then 3 baptisms that suggested these places were where the regiment was at some point during these years; which also provides an insight into the way in which wives moved around with the soldiers as they were posted from place to place.

The Berwickshire Militia did travel around quite a lot.
This is what I have a note of:
In 1808 they may have been at Edinburgh.
In 1810 they may have been at Haddington, East Lothian.
In 1811 they were at Woodbridge, Suffolk.
In 1813 they were at Irvine, Ayrshire.

Breconshire / Elystan Glodrydd - Rhwng Gwy a Hafren

A unique historic event is occurring on 24th October 2010, at Llanbister, Radnorshire
- for the first time the descendants of one of the five well known royal dynasties of Wales are gathering together, marking 1000 years in the family’s history.

No gathering of this kind is ever known to have occurred in history, at least not since the era of the Princes, some 700 years ago.

Those who are descended from Elystan Glodrydd, or have a particular historical interest in this family and would like to attend are welcome to get in touch
