Hi Jen
I wonder if your obituaries go back as far as 1921? I would be very grateful for the obituary of Ann Woosnam who died tragically on February 15th 1921 in Lougher Swansea.
Thanks

Hi Tawe

This was never an offer of look-ups and it seems that Welsh Jen has not been online for some years!

Can I suggest that you post your enquiry on the look-up board, where it will get more attention?

Kind regards, Arranroots
