Thos Weir

[telephonist]

Hello from NZ, I wonder if anyone knows how I might find any more info about this man with the info on his death notice.  I have no memory of where this death notice came to me from either I'm afraid!
Is there a history place in Carmarthen i could email?
Kind regards.

Thanks so much for your quick reply, unfortunately this does not seem to be the Thos Weir I am researching!

Do you mean the 68 year old Thos Weir in the death notice is also not the one you are looking for.

The information on address from the probate record matches the newspaper clipping but appears to be the wrong person

I have found my Thomas I think, he buried Danygraig Cemetery  Plot 475A and his daughter Sarah Ann is in the same plot! She died 1877. They lived at Catherine Street, Swansea Wales.
Would i find a death notice anywhere from his family?

Not his death, but a promotion in 1811 Cambrian newspaper col 4 https://newspapers.library.wales/view/3322575/3322578/10/
