Happy Times

I was born in Mary Street, Treharris in 1946. My name was Vicky Toogood then. I have great memories of Quakers Yard, hot summers, snowy winters, and never getting bored. We always had something to do, we walked for miles in the summer and slid down the icy mountain on cardboard in winter, those where the best days of my life.

MYFANWY EYNON - I have just bought a wholecloth quilt that is said to have been made by Myfanwy Eynon of Treharris in about 1935. Does anyone remember this lady, or her family? I would be grateful for any information, please. Best wishes, Angela.
