Salem Chapel - Maesmynis, Breconshire

[Jueb1962]

I've been searching for the baptisms of my 2xGreat Grandparents (Rees & Elizabeth Jones-maiden name Jones also) in Maesmynis for some time now and because they were very likely born about 1810/1812 the parish records for that period are missing, they no longer exist.  I've also checked with the NLW and the Bishops Transcripts do not cover those years either.

Their burials are also a mystery - Rees died in Maesmynis April 1869 and Elizabeth died in Llanddewi'r Cwm in May 1889 but there is no record of their burials in the Maesmynis or Llanddewi'r Cwm registers.  I have also checked the MIs for Builth, Maesmynis and Llanddewi'r Cwm, no luck.

Given that I can also only find a baptism for only one of their nine children, I am starting to think they may have been non-conformists which leads me to my question.  Does anyone know if baptism/burial records for Salem Chapel in Maesmynis exist and if so, where can I find them??

I'm visiting Maesmynis the week after next so my search is of an urgent one!!

Many thanks

Hi thank you Mike, yes 1807 is a little too early for Elizabeth's birth.

I've just had a reply from the NLW and they don't hold the records for Salem chapel although I've just checked and you're right about family search (although I've never requested records from them before) but also it looks as if the Society of Genealogists in London hold them as well. 

Sadly I'm not going to get to either of these places before my visit!!  Nevermind thank you for your help!
