Hi Debbie, are you sure it’s the same Thomas Bevan? My G G Grandfather lived in Victoria Avenue at the time of his death in 1944. Who was your uncle? I’ve never heard of Glenfield Cottages. 1/27/2020 07:58:45 am

Hi Andrea, Just got your message, thank you. I guess that makes us cousins of some sort?! Dorothy died in July 1965, two months before I was born and is buried in Newton churchyard along with her husband, Henry Idris Williams who sadly drowned in 1933 rescuing two girls in the bay at Porthcawl.
