Pengam, Cardiff.
« on: Sunday 13 June 10 18:54 BST (UK) »
Good evening folks,

Can any one please help me?
I have received a letter from the Commonwealth War Graves Commission
giving details of my great Uncle who was killed in the war in 1916.
The address given is Old Half-Way House, Pengam, Cardiff.
They have not given any other address than that, to me something else
is missing.
It seems my great uncle and his mother Sarah Hill was living at that address
before we went to war.

Hoping some kind person can point me in the right direction.
Thank you for taking time to read this.

Shirlann.

Ospray,
Thank you for that.
I take it that there was no other form of address other than Half-Way
House.
Thanks again.

Hi Gortonboy,

I am looking for the full address as I wish to ask a friend to go and take a photograph, that's if it is still standing.
I feel I need more than the address I have as I should imagine Pengam in now a
much larger place.

Thanks any way.

there's also a Pengam in Roath, part of Cardiff. Could it be that one?

What's the family you're looking for?
