Hi
Thank you for your comment.
My Morgan family (I was born a Morgan) were largely from Cinderford. My grandfather was Arthur Morgan, son of Arthur Morgan (son of Samuel Morgan and Mary Burcher) and Margaret Sier Trigg. His mother died after giving birth to him. When he was 4 or 5 his father also died and he was sent to live in an orphanage.
Eventually he moved to the Rhondda valley and lived his life there until he died aged 75 in 1972.
I don't really have any ancient history to tell you as he didn't talk much about his family.
