I am looking for info on the Jones family around 1900,s , my gran told me she lived in Blaengarw , she remembered her house overlooked a hospital this was around 1910, her name was Edith may Jones , she was one of 9 children, one of her brothers davey Jones was killed in the colliery , her parents were John Jones and Margaret Mary Jones ( nee Llewelyn) and owned a shop, poss could have been in the family , they moved to Clydach Swansea around 1912 and owned a few shops there one was Hong Kong stores and a penny bazaar .
She remembered as a small child visiting a church there and carving her name on the wall in a porch on the way in , apparently it was a popular tradition , any info welcomed, Christine
