I can feel for you Geoff... I live in a rainforest. Being born here (on a rainy night) I love the rain, although there are times enough is enough already!

About Me:
I have been studying genealogy for 25 years.
What is your interest in or connection to Wales?
My grandfather and his maternal ancestors were all Welsh. The ancestoral names that I am researching are; Mathews, Williams, Jones and Evans in the Montgomgeryshire/Powys area. My paternal, 2nd great grandmother Margaret Thomas was from Caernarvonshire, Wales.
I am hoping that someone might help me with translating the following tombstones inscriptions. Thanks in advance, for any help I may recieve.

Hello to All, thank you for such a warm welcome.

In 1911, my grandfather, along with his Mother and siblings immigrated to Canada from Machynlleth, Wales. I have had the opportunity to visit Wales twice, 1988 & 2000 and I plan to return in the future for yet another visit.

I look forward to exploring this site. Cheers, Lorraine

Hi Lorraine ..... Portland Oregon here. Originally from Cardiff. Croeso i Americymru. Gaabriel and I created this site less than a year ago as a Social and friendship site for the Welsh, Welsh ex-pats, persons of Welsh descent and Cymruphiles around the world. It has grown considerably since its foundation and we would like to extend a warm welcome to you....our latest member. Feel free to invite any friends that you think would be interested in joining. The network has many features which allow people with a shared love of Wales to communicate and share photos, videos, links, blogposts etc and we will be adding new features from time to time. Make yourself right at home. Once again...


Croeso!
