Of the two Darby/Haggerty births in Bridgend, there are various possible marriages for both names, unfortunately.

One marriage in Wales which MIGHT be the 1959 child - but they could have married anywhere, if at all.
I don't see that couple together on 192.com

There's a 1977 marriage in Wales which MIGHT be the 1956 child, and that couple (Morgan) are together on the 2018-19 ER for Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire.


The BBC news article doesn't seem to give any way of contacting the man with the Bible.

their named children in the bible are

There's a blot over the death space so can't see if anything recorded and with a name like that .......... not finding anything else at the moment

There is nothing to say whether there are more names on another page

There are other Mills/Morris births Bridgend RD but ? the same family -
very likely to be siblings looking at Mills/Morris marriages in that area

There were three female Haggerty/Mills births in Bridgend - 1924, 1929, 1931

A family Bible with Welsh connections has been found in Dorset.

Finders hope to reunite it with the correct family.

I have no known connection, but know that members like 'the chase' to find some.
