Treherbert seems to be in the parish of Ystradyfodwg which means her birth reg should be in Pontypridd District. Births Sep 1877 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brown Elizabeth Ann Pontypridd 11a 342 This is the only birth I can find and I can't see her on the inbetween census returns. You need someone with a good knowledge of the area and Welsh place names to help you! Merry (and that ISN'T me! LOL)
