Welcome
Well, we have finally found a new home. Unfortunately there are running costs now that were not present with our previous free webspace on Ancestry.
If you would like to support Carnarvon Traders and contribute towards the running costs, a donation would be very welcome. Any amount, however small, will be gratefully accepted.
Thank you.
Carnarvon Traders is updated on a regular basis. The updates are announced on the local Rootsweb Mailing Lists, e.g. Caernarfonshire, Gwynedd, & Clwyd, which means that if you are not subscribed to these particular lists you will miss the update announcements. If you would like to receive news of these updates, then join the mailing list, and you will be automatically notified by email.
What is Carnarvon Traders?
Carnarvon Traders is a website created to indulge my passion in the town's long and rich history, and also to help Family and Local Historians with their research. The aim of Carnarvon Traders is to bring genealogical and historical data online, and available to all.
What will I find on Carnarvon Traders?
Anything and everything related to the town's trading history, plus a few other things which, while not trade related, I find interesting enough to include. The various sections, which are linked to on the left, are briefly described below.
