Non-conformist Chapel in Aberaman, Wales briefly used by the LDS Church in 1851. |
Last week, I arrived. They gave me administrator access to our Early Missionaries Database and I flew my wings.
Well, there's one more missionary added. So don't get too excited.
It is a challenge keeping up with the Joneses. I mean, sorting out all the Joneses which is the most common surname in Wales if don't you know already. It also helps explain why David Bevan Jones (1807-1863) preferred to use his bardic name - the Welsh version of a nom de plume - of Dewi Elfed. I knew his story and wondered why he was missing from our database and didn't seem to show up on any Church record in Utah.
