New to this site, I thought I'd ask if there are other contributors out there looking at families in this area.
I am researching Howells, Smith, Watkins and Williams in the Olchon Valley at the moment - my family seem to have been there for centuries - farming.
there are also connections to Proberts, Powells and Davies
I am particularly interested in James Smith of Olchon Court.
Any references to "the Dingle"
Smiths of "Trechddu" -or trilocchddu, trelachddu
burials at St Peters - Llanveynoe
Other properties I have found refernces too include:-
the Wern, Thw Wayne, Blackhill, The Cwm, Newhouse,

Clodock families
Hullo
My family has some distant ancestors with family names George, Jones and Watkins with links to the area.
They may be of interest to you. If so please let me know.
They are Elizabeth George B 1833 Longtown who married John Jones B 1817 Clodock. They later lived at Llancillo and Walterstone.
Elizabeth's father was Arnold George B 1797 Clodock who married Ann Watkins on 18.7.1824.
I can follow the tree from them to now but am now stuck so any onformation you have on the above would be most welcome.

I'm mainly researching PARRY families in that area at the moment, but have WILLIAMS (at Tymawr, Clodock), JONES (Glasbury, Glynfach, & Capel-y-ffin), and HUGHES (Possibly Llantilio Pertholey). Also interested in GRIFFITHS - one of the PARRY girls married into that family and used fairly unusual girls names, Amsey & Prina.
Most of the family "border-hopped" during the 1800s, between Herefordshire, Breconshire and Monmouthshire so I have collected assorted pieces of information. Some of it (such as land tax, electoral rolls and polls for Clodock) I hope to transcribe and put onto my web site eventually, so it might be of use to you.
Alan, there's an Arnold GEORGE in the land tax for Longtown in 1798/99. He can't be the one you mention, but perhaps is relevant. Have you tried the parish registers for further information?

Barbara,
Thanks for the reply.
There may be a link with the Arnold Georges in that the forenames were often repeated in subsequent generations.
Unfortunately, I live in Southern England and the parish registers are hard to access.
As for John Jones, although I have little information on his early years, mine lived at Lodge Farm Llancillo 1860 - 70s.
Sarah, his daughter, possibly born before his marriage to Elizabeth George, married into the Watkins family from Staunton on Wye.

Hello Alan,

The following Moduses were established...." (continues by stating the tithes to be paid)
No specific family information of course, but perhaps adds a bit of history.
I'll keep a look-out for your family as I am listing my PARRYs in the area.
Best wishes

family in Clodock
Hello everyone, this is my first message. My ancestor Richard Reece was vicar of Clodock in 1722. Is anyone researching this family or is this family mentioned in their own family history? Looking forward to hearing from someone

You will have a much better chance of a response if you start a new thread.
To do this select the Hereford forum page (or whatever is the relevant forum for your posting) and click on the "New Thread" icon near the top of the page. Insert a title for your posting eg Richard Reece Vicar of Clodock and then your text and sit back and wait for the replies to roll in.Last edited by Procat; 12-06-2005 at 6:14 AM.
