WW1 research

An important document has been drawn up by Mr Vivian Parry, detailing the lives of many local soldiers who fought during the Great War.  The work was inspired by the touching WW1 memorial for soldiers of this parish, which stands within Upper Chapel Churchyard. There are stories and records featuring familiar farms and surnames from Merthyr Cynog parish, alongside articles from the local press of the time and invaluable accounts from living memory.  You can view Vivian Parry’s research here.
