Hi,
Seems like I stay swamped with other stuff!

Thanks for the great response! A Shelby Center in Tregaron sounds sounds 
like a major undertaking! Just what did you have in mind for this center 
and what would the board be doing?? Best place to post your idea would be 
on the SHELBY GENFORUM

Map..Not on my website..Back in early 1999, B. Franklin Reinauer III sent a 
letter stating: "While on a trip to London, I located Derlwyn (the property 
owned by Phillip S(h)elby in Tregaron Parish, Dyfed, Wales on an Ordanance 
Map..There is a footpath leading from Tregaron across the valley of the 
Afon Teifi over a foot bridge to Derlyn...." on the map it shows Derlwyn 
just NW of Tregaron

This will give you links to Tregaron, but can't say I have the old 
homestead pinpointed. There may not even be any land records to pinpoint it.

Then a bit later in the year, I heard from a person, who either didn't know 
what they were talking about, or was pulling my leg! Said they had been to 
the library in Aberystwyth and had looked at the records..but found that 
what I was told didn't match the [Shelby] christening records I finally 
received from another researcher. Anyway this person said the Shelby 
homestead was located precisely at the valley where the two rivers, the 
Croes and the Berwyn meet, within walking distance of Tregaron.
