  This video made me want to cry because the distance between today and those people in this video suddenly vanished and they seemed so close and personal. I felt like I was right there with them. How beautiful to get to share a moment with them.<br>I wish I had known every one of these proud, independent people.<br>You do a marvelous job of bringing them to life with the utmost respect.<br>Many of my fathers ancestors came from northern Wales and I love the Welsh side of my heritage.<br>Excellent video!!!!<br>I can&apos;t express how much I enjoyed it!!!<br>❤

  My Great Grandmother lived in New Street Llanfair Caeranion, on a few acres going down to the Banwy. She was born roughly in 1880.Her husband bred horses and corgi,/jacknrussell cross dogs. They used to cart by horse wool to Dinas Mawddy where it was washed. She lived to be 104.in her 80s she kept house and a big vegie garden . We called her Mam in Llanfair and often vidited her. She had a hige kitchen and pine table scribbed clean. A massive iron wall stove. With irish stew for us kids . Her terrier was called Busy and I loved him. <br>There was a massive oak dresser in another room. My memories are going back over 60 years ago. I also are very robust and still work at 73. Welsh middle class peasants lived long active lives.<br>Our extended family were farm contractors and timber contractors Journey men employment. Odd jobs like &nbsp;Hedging. Timber falling. Hay cutting with a sycthe. They would find work and were honest and valued reputation. They liked a drink, singing and telling stories.

  I still can&apos;t believe my G.father was alive in those times and I knew him as a child and listened to his stories!
