There’s obviously some mistake here. I am not Neil ap Siencyn. I’m afraid Neil died in 2015. I know because I went to his funeral. Towards the end he was in a care home in Llandysul, I visited him a few times; he was allowed to have Guinness – which had to be handed over to the matron. He was a good man, Neil, I have many happy memories of time spent with him over the decades.

Here are a couple of photos from the 1960s. Neil at a protest, and Neil ‘relaxing’ in the Lamb inn in Merthyr. Great days.

I’m Chris Fraser-Jenkins, your cousin in the Jenkins family originally from Hafod-yr-Gofaint, Ceredigion. You will remember we met many decades ago when I came up to visit you once! I’m 73 now and still going strong as a botanist, having lived in Nepal for 40 years and now at Cascais in Portugal,. My son is Jacob Jenkins – the old family name after my great grandfather Jacob, brother of your gt. G’pa, David. Would be great to hear from you!

Unfortunately you’re right.

I’d like to help but I only knew Tony’s wife and kids after they moved to the Dolgellau area. They’re scattered now and I don’t know if there are any relatives left in your area.

I have become interested in finding out a little more about Tony simply because for me he was local to me. There not many Nationalists where I live in Torfaen and I would like to know if Tony`s family still reside in Cwmbran.

Can’t argue with any of that. I was going to put up that photo of us outside the undertakers, but then I thought better of it.

Thanks, Ieu, I’ll take your word for that. Though I’m surprised that the two I’ve named were so far from their natural habitat.
