Anybody recognise the building in this photograph? Is Hirwain Hirwaun? In the 1911 Welsh census my grandmother wrote she was born there but she might haven't. I've seen some discrepancies with the census. Sometimes I believe they make simple mistakes. She married in the area and had four children. My great grandfather, Robert Mullins, was from Somerset and they were very poor. Maybe that is the reason they didn't get married until almost their third child had arrived, my aunty Tilly in 1914, Matilda Mullins. I have tested my DNA and think her mother or father was Davies or the previous generation. They left the area and brought their children up in Burry Port which is where I was born. I live in America now, so with no boots on the ground, having only the Ancestry sites to help me find out my family history. Thanks for your help, it's much appreciated! They lived on Brecon Road in 1911.
