i just returned from a wonderful trip to wales and the uk.  spent several
days in tregaron, and hopefully will have pictures soon to post.

think i tracked down where evan sr. and jr. lived before they left for the
u.s.  sadly, the cottage was torn down around 10 years ago.

will give a fuller account with names of those who gave me the leads and
where they got their info.

was struck by the interest of native locals in my quest, but also by the -
for lack of a better word - "ignorance" of tregaron residents in the
accomplishments of the shelby family and what they contributed to colonial
america.  

wouldn't it be wonderful if the shelby descendants across the u.s. and
beyond would all contribute to a marker or some sort of commemoration of the
family and the site from which they emigrated??!!  think about it!

Hi,
I was in Tregaron a couple of years ago,  and think I might have found the
farms where the Shelbys lived. I was going by the map in Judy's Shelby
journal. I look forward to seeing the pictures, etc. It would be wonderful
to have some sort of marker in or near Tregaron. Thanks for the update.
