I AM WRITING to thank you very much for publishing my letter in December. I asked if any of your readers could help my mother (June Carmichael) to find her father’s (Edward Powell) relatives living in the Newport area. Since then we have had two lovely letters from Wales which made my mother very happy indeed, all thanks to your newspaper.
My mother and father have planned a visit to Newport in April to see her relations and visit where her father grew up. She’s always been proud of her Welsh connections, now she will see it all for herself thank you again.
