I can't wait to see it!  It's my dream to visit Wales someday.  I fear it's in the distant future, based on work schedule & the economy.  I can tell you that you would not believe how much Pittsburgh looks like Merthyr Tydfil.  I will have to use "Google Earth" to check out Maesteg & Dale!  :)

Direct family lines, same journey!

The postcode (zipcode) for Queen street is CF34 9YN. It is a reversed L-shaped street, with houses in one part, and a lane that only has the library in it. If you look North-East along the house street (roughly), number 7 is on the right

Hi,
I'm in the William Donovan - Mary Connolly line (or at least I think I am!). 
I have a copy of a report in the Western Mail, 10th Dec 1887, re the demise of Jerimiah.  The reply page doesn't seem to want to allow me to attach it but, if you would like a copy we can exchange email addresses.

Kevin, Jeremiah Connolly was my great-grandfather and if at all possible I would very much like to have a copy of the report you have from the Western Mail. I am not able to PM you as I'm new but hope you can get back to me.

HI Martin
As Jeremiah was my great great grandfather  I have this report on ancestry, are you on there, it is a public tree.
Have you any pics of Mary Connolly?
