Hi, My name is Margaret Price nee Hughes.  I was born, and lived at
Cyril Place for 24 years until I married Alan Price from Granville Street.  We lived with his mum and dad for a short time then moved to abungalow that  Alan built at the top of Adam Street.We had two children Hilary and John and in 1966 emigrated to Australia.
In July 2009 I shall be back in Wales with Hilary ( nine when we left and she has not been  home since) and would like to  get in touch with  anyone who remembers me.    
Hoping you can put on some good weather for us  .,   thanks    Margaret

HI, YOU MAY KNOW SOMEONE WHO LIVED THERE FOR A LONG TIME,
TOMMY CRANDON :HE AND HIS WIFE NOW LIVE IN BARRY.
IF YOU DID KNOW THEM AND WANTED TO GET IN TOUCH, THEY VISIT ABERTILLERY ON A REGULAR BASIS.
I'M SURE IF YOU POPPED IN TO THE ROLLING MILL LIONEL THE LANDLORD WILL BE ABLE TO HELP YOU OUT.
TOM AND HIS WIFE ALWAYS POP IN WHEN THEY'RE BACK.
THEY DO A NICE DINNER THERE TO.

Thanks Ian, but   I don't know that family,   I was probably gone before they lived  at Cyril Place,  its a long time ago,  like  more than 50 years.

Hi, I've often thought about  Hilary over the years. I can remember you very well. Hilary and I were good friends. I remember playing for hours in your garden and up on the racing road! I lived at the bottom end of Adam Street. Do you remember me?

Of course I remember you Elaine, though guess I wouldn't recognise you now ..........Hilary is coming home with me. She hasn't been back since we left in 1966 so it's exciting for her to come see Abertillery again.
Perhaps we could  meet with you for a coffee.We'll be staying at Brecon from 6th July and visiting Abertillery during that week.
Cheers   Margaret
