Do you have a rough idea of where in Wales we are looking? There were plenty of Chapels of Ease throughout Wales. These were provided for the ease and comfort of those living some distance from the main parish church.

Hi Julie,

As Bob has mentioned, Rugby and Chapels are most prominent in South Wales., some East and West Rugby players have played for Wales but, on research, can't find a North Walian.

However, if you can give me more specific details of your family tree, grandad in particular, I will see what I can do.

Julie, please PM me if you want me to continue, I have my own archive company.
