Grinder’s Stand in the Tennessee Mountains.
After taking a few drinks and saying “lovely evening ma’am” to a fellow
customer, the 35-year-old American-Welsh frontiersman apparently blew his brains
out with pistol.



- Ivor Novello: Last Great Romantic - Born in Cardiff, Ivor Novello found fame
as a writer of patriotic songs during the First World War such as Keep The Home
Fires Burning.
His good looks helped him win acclaim as Britain's first movie idol, although he
failed to make a break in Hollywood.




- 1,500-strong dolphin super pod spotted off Pembrokeshire - ONE of the

teenage boy is being marked later.
A minute's silence at the port in Newport will be held to remember the moment

Los Angeles Taffia
It's interesting to read of the 'taffia' in Los Angeles.
They may watch and support Welsh rugby in each others garages but do,
from what I can tell, nothing to enhance Wales or Welsh culture in Tinsel Town.
The Welsh Church has been a part of the Welsh scene in Los Angeles for 120 years
and is truly the very last vestige of Welsh culture in the whole of Southern
California.
We are now reduced to maybe 10 people coming on Sunday. Our average age is above
65 years.
Twenty years ago our Gymanfa Ganu, held twice year at that time, saw up to 300
attendees, now we are very fortunate to see 150 people once a year. Our Saint
David's Day celebration, where we often bring in artists from Wales, is
similarly diminishing in attendance. I read sometime ago, and here I paraphrase,
the Welsh celebrities in California tout their Welshness when it suits and
benefits them and on days of international rugby. Hmm! I wonder.

Did you know that the first American novel," The Journal of Penrose, Seaman "
was written by a Welshman?
Did you proud Welsh people in America know that the very first American novel
, " The Journal of Penrose, Seaman " was written by a Welshman? His name was
William Williams.
First published in 1815, this current publication is edited by excellent ,
patriotic Welsh author , Mr Terry Breverton,of St Athan, near Cardiff.
T D Breverton has also written first class, informative books such as "The
Book of Welsh Saints " ; The Book of Welsh Pirates and Buccaneers and books
on Welsh pirates, Sir Henry Morgan and Bartholomew "Black Bart "Roberts.
I think that author , Terry Breverton is worthy of greater support from Welsh
folk across the world, so that he can carry on his invaluable work of
documenting our history and place in the world.His latest book is about Owain
Glyndwr.
Please tell your friends about his web-site , www.glyndwrpublishing.co.uk .
Terry Breverton deserves the support of Welsh people and friends of Wales
everywhere.
Diolch yn fawr iawn. Safwn yn y bwlch !

Alabama Welsh
One of our projects for the summer months is for individuals or small groups of
AWA members to attend events & festivals in your community, town, city or county
& handout AWA leaflets. This is easily done as you will not have to set-up tents
or canopies with tables, chairs or ice-cooler in tow.Just simply walk through
the crowd at your chosen event & handout leaflets explaining who we are & that
if their names are not on our list perhaps some of their families or friends
names are & to please pass the leaflets on to them neighbors or co-workers.
Simplier yet, is to just walk around in the parking lot of an event & place the
leaflet under their vehicles wiperblade. You`ll be home in no time & AWA
information will be in afew more people`s hands. Its not hard to do.
Also, never miss an opportunity to plug AWA in little local periodicals &
newspapers, many have free sections just for this sort of thing.
Our next meeting is Saturday July 25th 5 PM at Paul`s Bar-b-que about 4 miles
north of Pell City, Al. at the intersection of US Hwy. 231 N. & Hyw. 144. So
please mark your calendars NOW. See all of you then.

Welsh societies in California
I was referred to you by Eryl Aynsley after I contacted her asking if she knew
of a Welsh Society close to me in San Luis Obispo county. She did not but
suggested I contact you as someone who might know and if not, could possibly put
a little announcement in your newsletter.
I was born in Birkenhead in Cheshire and lived from the age of six until nine in
Dyserth in Wales before moving back to Birkenhead and later, Southampton. I
came to New York in 1966 and moved to california in 1972. All my family is still
in the UK with a few of them living in North Wales and the rest in Hampshire and
Cornwall.
Are Welsh roots were Jones and Lewis and on my mother's side: her grandmother
did not even speak English, she told me.
I would appreciate hearing back from you.

Colorado Welsh Society
The Colorado Welsh Society is pleased to present a program on the Colorado Welsh
Miners in Boulder and Weld Counties, Colorado. This program will be held on
July 11, 2009, at the College Hill Library, 3705 W. 112th Avenue, Westminster,
Colorado. The program is from 3:00 to 4:45 PM. Paul and Carol Lightsey will
present this program on
The advent of coal mining in Colorado began concurrently with the gold rush of
1858-59 that essentially started the European migration into Colorado. By 1870,
coal mining was flourishing and the primary economic product of Boulder and Weld
counties. By 1900, nearly 2000 Welsh had moved to Colorado; some directly from
Wales, but many emigrating first to the coal fields of Scranton and Wilkes-Barre
Pennsylvania first. This presentation will describe the early history of the
role of Welsh coal miners in Colorado and the “Lewis Home - Miner’s Museum” in
Lafayette, Colorado.
This program is free and open to the public. After the program please join
members of the Colorado Welsh Society at the Exchange Tavern, 11940 Bradburn
Blvd. for dinner, drinks and socializing. Bradburn is a short street running
south of 120th Avenue just west of Lowell Street. For more information contact
