AND TO MAKE IT EASIER FOR ME,AT THE MOMENT I'M PLOTTING ,,I MEAN FROM SWANSEA TO PEMBROKSHIRE COAST,,,DONT WORRY NOT GOING TO LAND ON YOU, ....JUST PICK YOUR BRAINS,,,MUM BORN LLANELLI,

I do but in the North, BUT I too am researching Llanelli. I had wonderful help from Trixie however I don't think she is a member any more. The records office were great and right in the town but you may need to go to Carmarthen. The library were very helpful too. I travelled by train and everywhere was in walking distance, also went on to Swansea by train. I am off on holiday in an hour but if you still neeed help when I get back next weekend PM me and I will try and contact Trixie as she is a mine of information. I am so grateful to her and her husband. Linda x
