Robert Lionel Davies Graigwen Farm Pontypridd 1903-1956 (approx)

Hi,
Robert Lionel Lewis Davies was my great grandfather. He did not live on Graigwen farm but his daughter (my grandmother) lived at Gellifynachas Farm, which is in Graigwen. Unless you are one of my uncles, I'm assuming you must be the child of Viola Davies, my grandmother's half-sister. I am also currently searching for Robert's real parents. I have found his mother - Beatrice Lewis - and I think I may have an inkling about who his father might have been as well. I would love to hear from you and maybe join forces in our search.

Hello there!
Thanks so much for getting in touch. Yes I’m Viola’s eldest daughter & I’m guessing you are related to the son/daughter of the Mann brothers.
I’ve always been fascinated by family history as I know so little & went down the rabbit hole of trying to do some research during the pandemic. The stumbling block is always Robert Lionel, as you obviously understand.
The furthest I’ve got is Beatrice Lewis, I have a photocopy of RLs birth certificate I’d be happy to share with you.
Let’s keep in touch!

Wonderful!! I have set up an email so that we can keep in contact more directly and privately. So, the email is (all lower case and no gaps) your mother's half sister's name, followed by your mother's mother's first name and maiden name @gmail.com (I really hope that makes sense!)

Great idea, thanks.
Just checking… my mother’s half sisters name, full name? Maiden name or married surname?
