That's my great great grandfather too. He looks the spitting image of my dad and uncle.

Hi both I am not sure how else to get in touch so pardon public question. I am working on a heritage education programme for the Lido at Pontypridd and we are developing a trail about Ponty People. I was wondering if you would mind if your ancestor, Tom 'Cockles' was feature, being such a colourful local character? You can get in touch on here or via our website at: www.tirnanogheritage.com I look forward to hearing from you Regards :)
