VACHELL family of Cardiff
« on: Sunday 19 October 08 17:51 BST (UK) »
Hello I was just wondering if anyone has any information on the Vachell family of Cardiff...

I know that they were a family of Doctors in Cardiff Royal Infirmary...does anyone know where I could find records of surgeons working there....?

Also does anyone have any old pictures (1700's-early 1900's) of.....
Cardiff Royal Infirmary
Charles Street, Cardiff
Cockherbtown Lane, Cardiff
Duke Street, Cardiff
Newport Road, Cardiff

Many thanks :):):)
