Small Village Big World

A Memory of Cwm.

I was also born in Cwm in 1950. We lived there untill the early sixties with my sisters Rhian and Ann. I have just found this web site, and my first impression is how far the children of Cwm have spread over the world. I see people from Thailand, Australia, I myself live in Suriname in South America.

I remember all the people from Llechwedd Hafod I.e Richard, the late Edward, I was so sorry to miss his funeral, Gwyndaf and Elisabeth, Emyr Swch, Trefor bach, Geraint, Iola, Gwyneth Mai, Maelor ( Mul Bach) Ken O to name but a few. I liked Iola very much, but Cwm boys did not say such things in those days haha.

I have not been to Cwm for a few years now but Rhian and her husband go regularly to see Catherine who used to keep the shop. I speak to her on the phone, and it's pleasing to hear her say that the village is still very much alive.

My regards to all ex Cwm people wherever you are.

Bryn
