Hello
I am new to this site and wondered if any one could tell me which mine your would have worked if you lived in Merthyr Tydfil/Pontypool/Pontypridd areas of South Wales?
My G Grandfather Thomas Davies was a miner and lived in these areas so i would be grateful if anyone has any ideas.
I have his address in 1901 as 6 Cross Keys St Merthyr

Thanks again
Marie

Hi Marie,

Click here http://www.aditnow.co.uk/uk-mining-regions/default.aspx?ref=27 and then click on the names of the south Wales collieries, each one has a page with a useful map to help you :thumbsup:
