Hello, I very much enjoy that you have taken the time and made the effort to go through the Neath Cemetary and do your best to interpret and present the information upon the headstones for anyone interestested to appreciate. I would like to however suggest a few facts which would put myself and my family at ease. On the very top of page 4, LLewellyn Thomas was my Grandfather, and I'd like to simply request that a few changes be made as to the comments about his stone as well as my Fathers. First, it's Llewellyn, not the double capitals as you have it spelled. Additionally, the reason he and my Grandmother have a tree next to there stone is that he was a presiding Minister of the church, and our family settled there in 1825. The original farm is still in our name. There are no other trees planted within the cemetary, and this is of note as his contributions were appreciated enough that the community planted two trees aside his stone. The other fact upon
which I would ask for you to correct or otherwise make a note of, is that Llewellyn W. "Bud" Thomas was his son, as well as my Father. Ellyn Marlene Sherbo is my Aunt, and a Daughter of Llewellyn and Myrtle Thomas. It is not my intent to scrutinise all you have done, or otherwise critique you in any way. I am so very thrilled that this site exists and it warms me very much that such a rural cemetary was not forgotten and you have taken the time to document it. I would simply ask that you "fill in the blanks" on both my Grandfather and Father as they were truly extrodinary and deserving of more than simply a name and a date.

   Sincerely, thank you so much for your time.
Tracy N. Thomas
