Hi, my father told me that his uncle was born in Merthyr and died in Merthyr on or around his 21st birthday.his name was William Jones. Granma was born in 1896 and william was her younger brother. There fathers name was also William. they owned a roundabout and traveled with the fair. William snr also owned a public house Called the Horse & Jockey wich was on the england wales border but i am not sure were. I do know that Williams son in law Albert Ayres My grandad helped build an extention on the horse and Jockey on the england side so that they could serve beer on a sunday. This would have been around 1919. do's anyone know the name of the camertarey in Merthyr?. or do's anyone have any idea of were the pub might be? My granmother and my father have sadly passed away now but i would love to know a little bit more about my fathers side of the family. thanks Priscilla
