Glynogwr burial help
« on: Monday 12 August 13 22:00 BST (UK) »
Hi, I was wondering if anyone had the means of looking up glynogwr cemetery burials. I am looking for Evan Walters d.1936 and his wife Martha Walters (possibly Martha Banwell) d.1948. I am also looking for David Walters d.1923 and Cecilia Walters d.1921 or just all Walters if that is easier. Thanks very much!

Hello  :)

St. Tyfodwg's Church, Glyn Ogwr is now in the Parish of Llandyfodwg and Cwm Ogwr. The new parish covers all of the Ogmore Valley to Blackmill & Glyn Ogwr. The St. Tyfodwg burial records deposited at the Glamorgan Record Office cover the period 1770 to 1905.

Information about the Parish can be found on the Church in Wales website:

Kind Regards
Morgan

I drive through Glynogwr every day on the way to and from work, would it help if I had a look around the cemetery for you?

Hi, sorry for delay.

The only one I can find at the moment is one gravestone with;
David John Walters
1 Tramroad Side, Evanstown
Died July 18th 1958 (aged 76)
Margaret Ellen
Died December 25th 1961 (aged 75)
also children
Johnny and Nancy

Many of the gravestones are very old and worn and difficult to read but I will carry on with a systematic search for you.
If this one is of any interest to you I could take a photo and email it to you.

Hi, thank you very much for looking and replying!

My Evan had a brother called David John who lived in Gilfach, but sadly the dates don't add up  :(
Yeah sadly I think this may be the case with this grave, that it's simply just too worn, thank you again for looking though, it is very appreciated!
