I am looking for information on my MORGAN family. According to my "family history" my GGG grandfather, David Morgan was born in Ammonford,Carmarthenshire, South Wales. His parents were William Morgan (born Nov 22, 1807) and Margaret Jones (born Sept 9, 1807). William Morgan was a stonemason along with his brothers, Morgan Morgan and Joseph Morgan. Morgan Morgan was the original contractor of the Llandelio Bridge, which was completed in 1848.
David Morgan; born August 9, 1830 (son of William) had several brothers and sisters:
Margaret Morgan; lived in Maespannwr and was a butter merchant.
Hannah Morgan; born Aril 5, 1838, married ? Harries. Had son Gomer Harries who had a boot shop in Brynamman.
