Penallt, near Monmouth ... a new book !

[ariconium]

I would also be interested in obtaining copies of both books.  My gggg-grandfather was George Robbins (1783 - 1859).

I'll PM you Ariconium ... we still have copies of both available.

I would like copies of both books too please  Have only just joined this site so not sure of the process. My grandfather was Earnest Morgan who had a shop on Penallt.

Hello !

You need to make two more posts before you can use the personal message (PM) system ... then I can PM you as to how to contact the elderly gentleman who is holding the stock of books !


The shop at Penallt by Croes Vane closed about 25 years ago 


If you are near to Penallt, then we are also having a Records day in November ... see a separate thread ... which might interest you.

Thank you so much for your help. My Aunt Nora Meredith used to keep the shop too and is mentioned in Penallt Revisited which I bought yesterday in a book shop in Monmouth. It was a fascinating read. I would be interested in the records event ... my daughter-in-law is researching the family tree and would love to come too if possible.

I remember her !

So if you've got Penallt Revisited, do you still want both books, or just the first one ?

(In answering this, you will have made a third posting, and you'll be able to use and receive PM's !)

I would love any books on Penallt. I have just bought Penallt Revisited in the book shop in Monmouth but would love the Miscellany and any others that are available. I was born in Redbrook and had a job in the village shop when I was at school ... the Kerridges were my employers and I helped to put up the deliveries for Penallt ... 46 years ago! I My Grandparents (Mr and Mrs E Morgan) lived at Cherry Orchard, Lone Lane until moving to Maryland in the fifties.  I would be very grateful if you can point me in the riight direction for the books.

Thank you.

I've sent you a PM with the details of how to get the books ...

Do come to our family history day in November if you can !

Hi,

I've just found rootschat since starting looking into family tree - I'd love to get hold of copies of both books and I'm wondering if there is anywhere I could buy copies this weekend?  (I no longer live nearby but will be returning for a visit).

Many thanks!
