Can Anyone Help?
Does anyone know the whereabouts of a Melvyn Winters, he was/is from Gilfach Goch and in the 1960s he had a relationship with Rita Sparkes resulting in a daughter. We would love it if anyone knew of his whereabouts as his daughter Wendy would love him to get in touch! The only other information we have is his father's name was William Winters and he had a younger sister and 3 older brothers. If anyone has any information please email jamiedjuk@yahoo.co.uk Once again thanks for any assistance. Last edited: 28/07/2008 15:29 by James Hornsey |

Fountain Row
My mother was born in Gilfach Goch, No 3 Fountain Row, family name was Lewis and Blodwen Williams. I have been trying to find out where Fountain Row was as I've been up there and it's not there and I can't find it on any map. Help is required please. Last edited: 05/09/2007 11:36 by Lewis Carter |

The Pavillion, The Welfare Park
The pavillion burned down some years ago, can't exactly remember when. I seem to recall it was vandalism. Posted: 08/08/2007 20:07 by Kathy Priday |

Father in-law
Hi there. My father-in-law was born in Gilfach Goch but left when he was a child. It was not long ago me and my husband took him back and he was quite shocked to see how much the place has changed. The address he used to live at is no longer there, not even a road. Anyway before we left Mr Raymond Cook (my father-in-law) wanted to know what Gilfach Goch is in English as he cannot remember. Please help. Thanks. Last edited: 25/04/2007 10:05 by Bobbie Cook |
