Hi All, My great Grandfather Edward Richards was the Head Deacon at Saron Chapel, in Troedyrhiw my father tells me, not sure of the year, I am thinking around 1890. I can't find any information on this Chapel. Or the Deacons, can anyone help me here.
Thanks Marg

I believe that many of the original records of Saron Chapel were
transferred to the National Library of Wales in Aberystwyth
( probably in the early 1980s ), but that Merthyr Libraries made some photo copies before they were sent away. These records are al in the Welsh Language. I will try to check them for you tomorrow and reply again.

I can find details and a history of the Chapel itself.
Although, unfortunately, I am unable to read some material which is in Welsh, there is information on the ministers, but not on the Deacons.
Would you like photocopies sent to you?
Address?

Dear Carolyn, thank you so much, Please send me what you have, my dad is 92 and still speaks some of the old welsh language. mallbury@bigpond.net.au hope this is ok to send copies to. I have found that my grandfather was a deacon at Saron chapel definitely. He was also their treasurer I believe till 1914. Thank you again, and kindest regards. Margaret
