Home,Family, And Early Education.

Born at Peniarth Isaf, attended primary school where the first headmaster was Mr. E.L.Jones, followed by Mr. Bamborough. Local life was centered around Bethania Chapel and events at the Village Hall. In those days, the 2 shops were owned by Mr. Llew Roberts and Mr. G.J. Owen. The Railway Inn was run by the Astley family.
Best memories would have been home life, heavily involved in farm work and music, which would have spilled over into local eisteddfodau and concerts.
Penybontfawr has probably changed an awful lot, due to numbers of the young original people moving out.
