    Have a rummage on Family Search - a fair number of other children have their baptisms in Llanfair (or Llanvair) Waterdine. :)

    Thanks Jan :) around here we call it Lanver.

    The Pub there is now known as 'The Waterdine', but it has only become that in the last few years. It used to be known as the Red Lion. Mum used to be a barmaid there before she married. :)

    Met the chap I was helping on the way into the supermarket last night. He said thank you very much for the information, he has now been able to go back a further 2 generations.

    Strange, when he met me he called me Terry. There's not many around here who know me by my proper name, or maybe there are......:nailbiting:

    I'm intrigued as to the name you are known by around those parts. :confused:

    I've only ever been known as Billy (to my face anyway :D ) I've been known as that in and outside the family since I was christened. I've only been using Terry (my proper name) in the past few years to hide myself when posting on my site.

    Well it’s out now ;)
    I will say though that ‘Billy the Chimp’ has a nice sound to it
