The website is really good, it’s user friendly.
I think either everything to be bi-lingual or have a button for Cymraeg and whatever is in English do the same on the Welsh pages

Hello. I’m doing some research for Menter Cwm Gwendraeth on behalf of the County Council into combating fuel price hikes. One idea is obviously bulk buying oil to reduce costs. Cilycwm came up on the “oil-club” website. If anyone involved would be able to chat with me, I’d reallly appreciate it.
01269 871600. Yours hopefully. Neil.

Today I was having a chat to a nice gentleman named William Theophilus; I had contacted him to try to find out if he had any information regarding my Theophilus ancestors who came from Cilycwm. During our chat he told me about this website. The site is very informative and I feel that it is wonderful to gain an insight of where my family came from, and I will certainly be returning from time to time. One thing that I would like to see on this site is a geneaolgy message board apart from that well done!

Mr Theophilus is a very good ambassador for the site. He stayed at my bed and breakfast recently and was telling me all about it. It is very interesting and makes me want to come and see for myself. Good luck everyone

My hen taid Thomas was born in Cilycwm in 1828. My wife and I visited in 2009, when they were filming Pen Talar. I loved the village.

Your event’s page goes to a server 404 error message, other than that, (and the obvious ) it’s looking really good Dick. Well done

Hello Isobel. The Events page was removed from the final site version so I assume you are looking at an old version. Could I suggest you refresh your Explorer/Chrome cache – you should then see the current release version of the site.

You are all doing a great job, just what the village needs. I have loads of photos of the village and the surrounding area if yopu want them to fill some spaces. Not sure who I need to spesk to about that, but you are welcom to have some of them. I would also be interested in a bit of free advertising if that is ok. Again not sure who to speak to about that either. Its all looking great and easy to use. Thankyou for your time and effort. Joe

Hi
I am researching my family tree and have almost completed a reasonable history..
The family I am after is Jacob Rees and his 2nd Wife Anne both came from Caio were married in Cilycwm and were alive in the 1881 census, he was a blacksmith publican at the New New Inn located in Rhydygroes I have used Google to pinpoint the position but it appears to have gone ..alongside was the New Inn ..so I assume a bit of rivalry to place, any information on the family would be helpful as he had a Daughter “Jemimah b 1852 She Married and had a son her husbands surname I believe started with a “H”
Also any info on a family James Rees b1764, His wife Anne b1768 Marrage1789 Cilycwm Children James b1790 , Mary b 1792,Elizabeth b 1794 and Daniel b 1796 all from Cilycwm
The first family also lived at Glandwr which Dafydd Tomos replied and knew where it was so if anyone can give me the exact location ie; using St Michaels as a base so I can google it I would be greatful.. As I am over 70 and getting over a heart attackmy days of long distance holidays are over
Cheers Mike.g

Trying to find a house that my Great Grand mother lived in around mid to late 1800s. (We have a photo of the house) Her name was Margaret Lloyd and her father was Morgan Lloyd, a tailor. The name of their house or road was Traidrhywhinws. Another location was Tynbwl? Just wondered if you could shed any light on these as I can’t find any mention on local maps?
Many Thanks

Rhywbeth a ddaeth i lawr……………
Chinese lanterns have reached Cil-y-cwm!! If anybody wishes to retrieve about 6 to 10 of these lanterns which have landed on my land (are they reusable), please let me know so as to assist with the ladders and access…….

There was some publicity about these back in January – the NFU issued a statement saying they were a danger to farm animals:
http://www.farminguk.com/news/Farming-organisations-warn-against-Chinese-lanterns_22618.html
I don’t think they are intended to be re-used. Should we think of them as another kind of litter? Sadly many people feel it’s OK to discard stuff for other people to clear up. I do think there is a difference though between the intention to create something beautiful – a group of glowing lanterns drifting up into the night sky – and the act of chucking a plastic food carton out of the car window. After all fireworks are a kind of litter too.
