His farm has been also called Cwm Bargoed. And on other census forms known as Ty Cenol. Tir Blaen Bargod, Tir Cwm Bargod.
Where are they buried.

Hi Christine,

CWMBARGOED could very well be the name of the home they lived in, my grandfather and his brothers and sisters were born in Forge Mills or Graigwen-jack in montgomeryshire, that was on their birth registery and these were the names of their homes not any town, matter of fact I was actually sent a picture of forge mills by someone in wales (that was where my grandfather was born), but that is only me guessing, not knowing for a fact.
