    Rees and Catherine Jones live here in Bron Eppynt, and in 1929 they buy it from John Pritchard. We know that Rees and Catherine have children (the family used to live in Bridge End, Llangammarch in 1911).

    Two of their sons went to war (Evan Rees and Thomas (Tommy) John). Tommy died in Belgium aged 19, whilst his older brother Evan returned to Llangammarch. He then married and moved away, but still suffered from his time at war due to mustard gas.

    Rees and Catherine are buried at Llangammarch Church. Rees passed away in 1936, and Catherine in 1944.
