Hi,
Not offended at all. This richard and william pritchard have been odd from the begining. The firist I remember about him,when I saw my granny crying she had sent a photo to America of her 60 wedding anniversary and it had been returned person unknown at that address. This was in 1949 and thats all I know is that she had sent this photo to william her brother. There is no trace off william no birth not in any census. The other thing is that he was very eccentric and in the books written about Gilfach Goch it says you knew when he was home has his potmanto with silver pieces was in the station, when he came home he bought land This is all about Richard pritchard I do not know how true this is.
 The next thing is when I started to do my family tree I was talking to my cousin and it went on about William and Richard . My cousin is a lot older than me he said about our granmother family in america and that his morthe use to write to them a lot .
He had his mothers diary with that address in America

He his in his late 80s now and has got dementia so I cannot ask him we are the only two left in the family.  I will put my thinking cap on

Regard Moorland
