A very warm welcome to RootschatWelsh newspapers on line http://newspapers.library.walesclick on link and put "emannel cattle" in search field (note spelling and include " " as part of search key). The snippet returned confirms the adoption.At the moment clicking on headline "THEFT OF SILVER AT ALLTWEN" delivers original newspaper page but the article (last entry in end column) is not easy to read. Also tab down to last entry in column "37 articles on this page"
FindMyPast has a military record (4 pages - but not much detail) for an Emmanuel Cattle, born 1886.
