-I've lived -in the Lampeter area all my life...	0:00:06	0:00:09
-..and been interested -in both sides of my family tree.	0:00:09	0:00:13
-Andrew Jones -is a farmer from Cwmann.	0:00:13	0:00:15
-His family tree -is firmly rooted in this area.	0:00:16	0:00:19
-But some years ago, he discovered -a fact about his genealogy...	0:00:23	0:00:27
-..which surprised him.	0:00:27	0:00:30
-I recently learnt...	0:00:30	0:00:32
-..that my grandmother's side -of the family from Cardiganshire...	0:00:32	0:00:36
-..were of Jewish descent.	0:00:36	0:00:38
-I wasn't aware -of the Jewish connection.	0:00:38	0:00:41
-Many family members didn't -want to embrace their Jewish roots.	0:00:41	0:00:46
-But I'm proud -of my Jewish ancestry...	0:00:46	0:00:50
-..and I'd like to find out more...	0:00:50	0:00:53
-..and discover how a Jewish woman -came to settle in this area.	0:00:53	0:00:57
-I consulted Hanes Plwyf Llandysul...	0:01:05	0:01:09
-..a book by WJ Davies -published in 1896.	0:01:09	0:01:11
-It makes reference to Rev Edward -Jones, the vicar of Llandysul...	0:01:11	0:01:15
-..who died in 1744.	0:01:15	0:01:17
-"Edward Jones -came from Builth to Cardiganshire.	0:01:18	0:01:21
-"He married a wealthy Jewish lady...	0:01:21	0:01:24
-"..who bore him 24 children.	0:01:25	0:01:27
-"Twelve of them were raised -at their home in Dol-llan."	0:01:27	0:01:31
-The Jewish woman moved to Llandysul -as the wife of the parish vicar.	0:01:31	0:01:36
-Andrew was prompted to find out -more about this remarkable couple.	0:01:36	0:01:40
-Aided by local historians...	0:01:40	0:01:42
-..he has traced -his direct lineage to the Jew.	0:01:43	0:01:46
-I'm confident I have all the facts.	0:01:46	0:01:49
-Mam was the daughter -of Elizabeth Evans...	0:01:49	0:01:53
-..who was the daughter -of Hannah from Llandysul.	0:01:53	0:01:56
-The daughter of Hannah Pantygrugos -was the daughter of Elizabeth...	0:01:57	0:02:02
-..the daughter of Hannah -from Llawr Cwrt...	0:02:02	0:02:05
-..and the daughter of another -Elizabeth and another Hannah...	0:02:05	0:02:10
-..who was the daughter of Anne, -the wealthy Jew...	0:02:10	0:02:13
-..who was my great-great- -great-great-great-great-grandmother.	0:02:14	0:02:19
-I'm grateful for the book in which -she is described as a wealthy Jew...	0:02:19	0:02:23
-..but that's all we know of her.	0:02:23	0:02:26
-I want to know where she came from, -how she came to Wales in this era.	0:02:26	0:02:31
-I'd like to find out -about her family and her background.	0:02:31	0:02:34
-In order to find out more...	0:02:36	0:02:38
-..Andrew starts his research -in Llandysul...	0:02:38	0:02:41
-..at Dol-llan, the family home -mentioned in the book.	0:02:42	0:02:45
-Almost 300 years ago, the Dol-llan -mansion was the parish vicarage...	0:02:45	0:02:50
-..and home to Edward Jones, his wife -and their substantial family.	0:02:50	0:02:55
-It's nice to meet you too.	0:02:55	0:02:57
-It's nice to meet you too. - -Meriel Howells is the current owner.	0:02:57	0:03:00
-My great-great-great- -great-great-great-grandparents...	0:03:01	0:03:05
-..lived here - the Jew, the parish -vicar and their 24 children.	0:03:06	0:03:10
-This is what the children -described as the piano room.	0:03:12	0:03:16
-It's a large house.	0:03:16	0:03:18
-It's a large house. - -Yes, it is.	0:03:18	0:03:20
-It has eight bedrooms.	0:03:20	0:03:22
-The church is clearly visible -from here.	0:03:25	0:03:29
-Yes, it's conveniently situated.	0:03:29	0:03:32
-This might well have been -Hannah's bedroom...	0:03:32	0:03:35
-..and the view -she would have seen as a child.	0:03:36	0:03:39
-You're related to Hannah, are you?	0:03:39	0:03:41
-You're related to Hannah, are you? - -Yes, I'm her descendant.	0:03:41	0:03:42
-Hannah, Elizabeth, the daughter, -Hannah, Elizabeth three times.	0:03:43	0:03:48
-My mother was Sara.	0:03:48	0:03:50
-If I were a girl, I'd probably -have been called Hannah.	0:03:50	0:03:54
-Another visitor to Dol-llan is -Nia Powell from Bangor University.	0:03:54	0:03:59
-She specializes in the period -of history when Edward Jones lived.	0:03:59	0:04:04
-I've been tracing the family tree -for some time now...	0:04:04	0:04:08
-..but I've hit a brick wall.	0:04:08	0:04:10
-I hope you can shed some light -on it so I can trace it further.	0:04:10	0:04:15
-Edward Jones -was a very interesting man.	0:04:15	0:04:18
-The first fact I discovered...	0:04:18	0:04:21
-..was that he came from a family...	0:04:21	0:04:24
-..of noblemen.	0:04:24	0:04:27
-He graduated from Oxford...	0:04:27	0:04:31
-..so why did he move to Llandysul?	0:04:31	0:04:34
-Llandysul was one of the highest -paying rectorates in Cardiganshire.	0:04:34	0:04:40
-That would have attracted someone...	0:04:40	0:04:43
-..of Edward Jones's -social and academic status.	0:04:43	0:04:47
-"He married a wealthy Jewish lady -who bore him 24 children...	0:04:47	0:04:52
-"..twelve of whom were raised -at their home in Dol-llan.	0:04:52	0:04:56
-"The other 12 were given -to wet nurses in the village."	0:04:56	0:04:59
-An incredible number.	0:05:00	0:05:01
-You will find from parish records...	0:05:02	0:05:04
-..that rectors usually had -the highest number of children.	0:05:04	0:05:08
-But it was unusual -to have more than four or five.	0:05:08	0:05:12
-It says the others were given -to wet nurses in the village.	0:05:12	0:05:18
-This was quite often the case -in noble families.	0:05:18	0:05:23
-The mother didn't normally -breastfeed her babies.	0:05:23	0:05:28
-They were given to other mothers -in the vicinity who had given birth.	0:05:28	0:05:33
-The babies stood a better chance...	0:05:34	0:05:37
-..of developing healthily -and weaning.	0:05:37	0:05:41
-Usually, the infants -returned to the family home...	0:05:41	0:05:45
-..as small children -and lived as part of the family.	0:05:46	0:05:50
-It was often the case -that the mother...	0:05:50	0:05:53
-..became pregnant sooner than -if she were a breastfeeding mother.	0:05:54	0:06:00
-Can you decipher anything -from the will?	0:06:00	0:06:03
-The will was written -on 20th May, 1744...	0:06:03	0:06:08
-..shortly before his death.	0:06:08	0:06:10
-"I, Edward Jones, -vicar of Llandysul...	0:06:11	0:06:15
-"..in the Diocese of St David's...	0:06:15	0:06:18
-"..being sick and weak in body."	0:06:19	0:06:22
-That is apparent from his signature.	0:06:22	0:06:26
-"But of good and perfect memory."	0:06:26	0:06:29
-That is to say, -nothing had affected his mind.	0:06:29	0:06:32
-Edward Jones -didn't suffer from Alzheimer's.	0:06:32	0:06:35
-He goes on -to bequeath some of his money...	0:06:35	0:06:39
-..to his children.	0:06:40	0:06:42
-His wife is referred to -by name here - Anne.	0:06:43	0:06:47
-"And to my beloved wife."	0:06:47	0:06:49
-Of course, -she outlived her husband.	0:06:50	0:06:53
-We know his Jewish wife -was called Anne...	0:06:54	0:06:57
-..but we don't know -where she came from.	0:06:58	0:07:00
-Was she ostracized by her family?	0:07:01	0:07:04
-We'll have to wait and see.	0:07:04	0:07:06
-We'll have to wait and see. - -It will be interesting to find out.	0:07:06	0:07:09
-Opposite Dol-llan -is the ancient church...	0:07:11	0:07:15
-..where Edward and Anne Jones -are buried.	0:07:15	0:07:18
-Andrew is here to meet Yvonne Bowen, -another descendant of the Jew...	0:07:18	0:07:22
-..who is also tracing -her family tree.	0:07:23	0:07:25
-Hello, how are you?	0:07:26	0:07:27
-Hello, how are you? - -Very well, thank you.	0:07:27	0:07:29
-I'm Andrew.	0:07:29	0:07:30
-I'm Andrew. - -I'm Yvonne.	0:07:30	0:07:31
-You must be one of the Jews.	0:07:32	0:07:34
-You must be one of the Jews. - -Apparently so.	0:07:34	0:07:35
-I'm pleased to meet you -since we're from the same lineage!	0:07:36	0:07:40
-How long have you been -tracing your family tree?	0:07:40	0:07:45
-About three years. I first started -after beginning an IT course.	0:07:45	0:07:50
-It took off from there.	0:07:50	0:07:52
-Do you feel at all Jewish?	0:07:52	0:07:54
-Do you feel at all Jewish? - -How is a Jew supposed to feel?!	0:07:54	0:07:56
-I doubt it feels any different.	0:07:57	0:07:59
-According to this book, -Edward Jones passed away in 1744...	0:08:00	0:08:05
-..and he's buried with his wife -in the chancel.	0:08:05	0:08:09
-Have you found the tomb -in the church here in Llandysul?	0:08:09	0:08:12
-No, although I've made enquiries.	0:08:12	0:08:14
-Nobody seems to have -the relevant information.	0:08:15	0:08:18
-The church was restored in 1874...	0:08:22	0:08:24
-..so the interior -might have changed slightly.	0:08:24	0:08:27
-We should check the chancel.	0:08:28	0:08:30
-Unfortunately -for Andrew and Yvonne...	0:08:30	0:08:33
-..the church has been transformed -since their deaths.	0:08:34	0:08:37
-Any trace of their tombs -has disappeared.	0:08:38	0:08:41
-It's such a shame, isn't it?	0:08:42	0:08:45
-It's left to the imagination now.	0:08:45	0:08:48
-But our roots are here, aren't they?	0:08:48	0:08:51
-Yes, indeed.	0:08:51	0:08:53
-The church at Llandysul -offers no answers for Andrew.	0:08:54	0:08:58
-To discover more about Anne Jones, -the wealthy Jew...	0:08:58	0:09:02
-..he will have to travel -further afield.	0:09:02	0:09:05
-Andrew has come to London -to learn more about Judaism...	0:09:11	0:09:15
-..and the Jewish community that -would have existed in Anne's time.	0:09:15	0:09:20
-This is the Bevis Marks Synagogue...	0:09:25	0:09:27
-..Britain's oldest synagogue, dating -back to the era of Anne Jones...	0:09:28	0:09:33
-..the Jew from Llandysul.	0:09:33	0:09:35
-Welcome, Andrew, to Bevis Marks -Synagogue. Do come in.	0:09:35	0:09:39
-Let me give you a Kippah...	0:09:39	0:09:41
-..a skullcap which men -are required to wear in synagogue.	0:09:41	0:09:45
-Please put that on. Thank you.	0:09:45	0:09:47
-Let's walk through to have a look at -the interior of the synagogue.	0:09:47	0:09:52
-This way, through the doors.	0:09:52	0:09:54
-He's guided by David Jacobs, -who specializes in Jewish genealogy.	0:09:54	0:09:59
-This is the first time for Andrew...	0:10:00	0:10:02
-..to experience -the ambience of a synagogue.	0:10:02	0:10:05
-He is now able to ask the question -that has been weighing on his mind.	0:10:06	0:10:09
-My family tree reveals -that I'm descendent from a Jew...	0:10:10	0:10:14
-..who came to Wales around 1700.	0:10:14	0:10:16
-All on my mother's side...	0:10:16	0:10:18
-..I'm the ninth generation along -all the female side to that Jew.	0:10:18	0:10:24
-Am I still a Jew?	0:10:24	0:10:25

-Andrew Jones has travelled -from Lampeter to London...	0:10:34	0:10:37
-..to discover more about his lineage -and about himself.	0:10:38	0:10:42
-He knows he is descended -from a noble Jew...	0:10:42	0:10:45
-..who came to Cardiganshire -300 years ago as a vicar's wife.	0:10:45	0:10:49
-He's eager to find out more.	0:10:50	0:10:52
-Andrew's journey has brought him -to an ancient London synagogue.	0:10:53	0:10:58
-Cai Parry-Jones is researching -the history of Jews in Wales.	0:10:59	0:11:04
-He has also travelled to London -to share information with Andrew.	0:11:04	0:11:09
-Jews were expelled -from England and Wales in 1290.	0:11:11	0:11:15
-Until 1656...	0:11:16	0:11:17
-..Jews were legally forbidden -to live in England and Wales.	0:11:18	0:11:23
-But curiously...	0:11:23	0:11:25
-..historians have come across -hidden Jews of the time.	0:11:25	0:11:29
-Jews were readmitted -by Oliver Cromwell in 1656.	0:11:30	0:11:35
-Since then, Jewish communities -in Britain have prospered.	0:11:35	0:11:40
-Edward Jones -belonged to the establishment.	0:11:40	0:11:43
-He was an academic and a clergyman.	0:11:43	0:11:46
-How do you think he came -to meet the Jewish woman, Anne?	0:11:46	0:11:50
-Unfortunately I don't have -a definite answer for you...	0:11:50	0:11:54
-..but it's probable -they would have met at Oxford.	0:11:54	0:11:58
-During this time, many Jews were -studying Hebrew at the university...	0:11:58	0:12:04
-..and many of them -converted to Christianity.	0:12:04	0:12:08
-Jewish students were not admitted -to the university...	0:12:08	0:12:12
-..but Anne may have been related...	0:12:12	0:12:16
-..to a scholar -who taught at Oxford.	0:12:16	0:12:20
-It's interesting -for a historian like myself...	0:12:20	0:12:23
-..to discover the existence of Anne, -the first known Jew in Wales...	0:12:24	0:12:28
-..since the readmission of the Jews -by Oliver Cromwell.	0:12:29	0:12:33
-After hearing the background -and finding out from Cai...	0:12:33	0:12:37
-..how a vicar and a Jew -would have met 300 years ago...	0:12:37	0:12:41
-..David has rejoined David Jacobs, -an expert in Jewish genealogy.	0:12:41	0:12:45
-He has an important question -for him.	0:12:45	0:12:48
-My family tree reveals -that I'm descendent from a Jew...	0:12:49	0:12:53
-..who came to Wales around 1700.	0:12:53	0:12:55
-All on my mother's side...	0:12:55	0:12:57
-..I'm the ninth generation along -all the female side to that Jew.	0:12:57	0:13:03
-Am I still a Jew?	0:13:03	0:13:05
-Am I still a Jew? - -Yes, absolutely.	0:13:05	0:13:06
-I should wish you, "Mazel tov," -congratulations.	0:13:06	0:13:09
-It's exactly what the story needs -to have is a substance.	0:13:09	0:13:13
-As long as you are descended on the -women's side, on the female side...	0:13:13	0:13:19
-..then you and your mother -and your grandmother...	0:13:19	0:13:23
-..and any sisters you might have -are Jewish, and, indeed, brothers.	0:13:23	0:13:27
-But if your sister wished -to get married in a synagogue...	0:13:27	0:13:31
-..we would obviously -track that genealogy of yours...	0:13:31	0:13:35
-..and find that you were -Halachically Jewish.	0:13:35	0:13:38
-According to Jewish Law, you are -Jewish, so welcome to the tribe.	0:13:39	0:13:43
-Thank you.	0:13:43	0:13:44
-Despite the Jewish blood -halving in every generation...	0:13:44	0:13:48
-..I'm probably -only 1% Jewish blood by now...	0:13:48	0:13:51
-..but I'm still a Jew.	0:13:51	0:13:53
-Let me pick you up -on the phrase you used.	0:13:53	0:13:56
-Jewish genealogists wouldn't use -the phrase Jewish blood.	0:13:56	0:14:00
-We would say the Jewish line.	0:14:00	0:14:02
-It is through your great-great -times nine grandmother...	0:14:02	0:14:06
-..then you are indeed -Halachically Jewish.	0:14:06	0:14:10
-I haven't worked out mathematically -what nine generations is...	0:14:10	0:14:15
-..but it's thousands of descendants -of this lady living in West Wales.	0:14:15	0:14:20
-My first visit to a synagogue -has been a revelation.	0:14:20	0:14:24
-The history and the Jewish spirit -is palpable inside.	0:14:25	0:14:29
-Being a direct descendant -of the ninth female line...	0:14:29	0:14:33
-..makes me a Jew.	0:14:34	0:14:35
-Following his discovery in London, -Andrew returns to Llandysul.	0:14:42	0:14:46
-If David Jacobs is correct...	0:14:47	0:14:50
-..thousands of Cardiganshire's -natives are descendants of the Jew.	0:14:50	0:14:54
-Like Andrew...	0:14:58	0:14:59
-..Barbara Davies has traced her -family tree back to Anne and Edward.	0:14:59	0:15:04
-Come in, Andrew. I'm Barbara.	0:15:04	0:15:06
-Come in, Andrew. I'm Barbara. - -It's nice to meet you.	0:15:06	0:15:07
-It's time to compare notes.	0:15:07	0:15:09
-Come inside.	0:15:09	0:15:11
-This is what I have to show you.	0:15:14	0:15:16
-I'm looking forward to seeing this.	0:15:16	0:15:18
-The red line -shows from where you've descended.	0:15:19	0:15:22
-Starting with Hannah.	0:15:22	0:15:24
-Starting with Hannah. - -Yes, Hannah from Oernant.	0:15:24	0:15:26
-Elizabeth was her daughter.	0:15:26	0:15:28
-Elizabeth was her daughter. - -I follow that line.	0:15:28	0:15:30
-You haven't traced -any further back than that.	0:15:30	0:15:33
-I've traced Magdalen's side.	0:15:33	0:15:36
-Here I am, Barbara.	0:15:37	0:15:38
-Barbara Warlow?	0:15:39	0:15:39
-Barbara Warlow? - -My maiden name was Warlow.	0:15:39	0:15:41
-I was brought up -by John Davies and Rachel Davies.	0:15:41	0:15:45
-I heard from them -that they had a Jewish ancestor.	0:15:46	0:15:50
-How did you trace her?	0:15:50	0:15:53
-Pardon?	0:15:53	0:15:54
-Pardon? - -How did you get hold of her?	0:15:54	0:15:57
-It's all come from word of mouth.	0:15:57	0:15:59
-But there was a man from Lampeter -called Dyson Jones.	0:15:59	0:16:03
-Auntie Maggie...	0:16:03	0:16:05
-..was a headmistress in Llanybydder.	0:16:06	0:16:09
-She asked Dyson Jones, -"You fought in the war, didn't you?	0:16:10	0:16:13
-"Do you think the Nazis -will be back in power?"	0:16:13	0:16:18
-He said, "No, never."	0:16:18	0:16:20
-She kept on asking, "Are you sure?"	0:16:20	0:16:22
-In the end, Dyson Jones said to her, -"Why are you asking all the time?"	0:16:22	0:16:27
-And she said, -"Because I have Jewish blood in me.	0:16:28	0:16:32
-"We had a Jewish princess -in our family...	0:16:32	0:16:35
-"..and if the Nazis regain power, -they'll kill us all."	0:16:35	0:16:39
-It was during wartime, of course, -and that's what she said.	0:16:39	0:16:43
-That's interesting.	0:16:43	0:16:44
-For Andrew, -one question remains unanswered.	0:16:53	0:16:56
-Where did Anne the Jew come from?	0:16:57	0:16:59
-Edward Jones -hailed from Radnorshire...	0:16:59	0:17:02
-..so it's possible he might -come across answers in the Marches.	0:17:03	0:17:08
-I've been to her home -in Llandysul...	0:17:15	0:17:17
-..and to the synagogue in London.	0:17:18	0:17:20
-The journey continues -to Clun in the Marches.	0:17:20	0:17:23
-I'm not sure why -but I'd love to know...	0:17:23	0:17:26
-..where this Jew came from -and what kind of life she led...	0:17:26	0:17:30
-..and why I've come here.	0:17:30	0:17:32
-Historian Nia Powell -invited Andrew to Clun.	0:17:34	0:17:38
-She has carried out further research -into legal documents of the time.	0:17:38	0:17:44
-I know you enjoyed your visit -to the synagogue in London.	0:17:49	0:17:54
-However, I'm going to shatter -some illusions.	0:17:54	0:17:58
-At the same time, -I may be able to create new ones...	0:17:58	0:18:04
-..which are just as interesting, -if not more interesting.	0:18:04	0:18:09
-We have discovered -from land registries...	0:18:10	0:18:15
-..that Edward Jones -came from Llanfihangel Rhydithon.	0:18:16	0:18:20
-This made me wonder -whether or not it was possible...	0:18:21	0:18:25
-..that there was someone from -the same area in the 17th century...	0:18:25	0:18:29
-..of Jewish origin.	0:18:29	0:18:32
-I looked through the wills -of people from that time...	0:18:32	0:18:36
-..for Jewish names.	0:18:36	0:18:38
-Indeed, in the parish -of Llanfihangel Rhydithon itself...	0:18:40	0:18:46
-..there was a family -whose names were all Jewish.	0:18:46	0:18:50
-They were the Rasbach family.	0:18:51	0:18:54
-It's an unusual surname.	0:18:54	0:18:57
-This is the will -of Henry Rasbach...	0:18:58	0:19:01
-..who died in 1686 -in Llanfihangel Rhydithon.	0:19:01	0:19:06
-It lists the names of the children -with Jewish names...	0:19:06	0:19:11
-..Hebrew names which weren't used -in the Christian community.	0:19:13	0:19:18
-Here's an interesting fact.	0:19:18	0:19:21
-Amid Henry Rasbach's -grandchildren...	0:19:21	0:19:24
-..there is a girl called Anne.	0:19:25	0:19:28
-Her name was Anne Selby.	0:19:31	0:19:34
-"My grandchild, Anne Selby...	0:19:34	0:19:37
-"..with sufficient meat, -drink, clothing, lodging...	0:19:37	0:19:42
-"..and all other necessaries -whatsoever."	0:19:42	0:19:46
-In this will, she and her sister...	0:19:46	0:19:50
-..along with her uncle...	0:19:50	0:19:52
-..inherit Henry Rasbach's -entire estate, including his house.	0:19:52	0:19:59
-So she was an heiress...	0:19:59	0:20:01
-..and a woman of substance.	0:20:01	0:20:03
-This is a copy of a will...	0:20:05	0:20:08
-..from the Hereford Record Office.	0:20:08	0:20:11
-We can read it together.	0:20:11	0:20:14
-"In the name of God Amen...	0:20:14	0:20:17
-"..the 12th day of October -in the year of our Lord God...	0:20:17	0:20:21
-"..a thousand five hundred -fifty and five."	0:20:23	0:20:29
-A century earlier.	0:20:29	0:20:31
-"I, William Rasbach...	0:20:31	0:20:35
-"..of the parish of Clun..."	0:20:35	0:20:37
-Right here.	0:20:39	0:20:40
-That's why we're sitting here today!	0:20:41	0:20:44
-But what we have here...	0:20:44	0:20:46
-..is a Christian will - -"In the name of God Amen".	0:20:46	0:20:50
-What we have is a family...	0:20:50	0:20:54
-..who were more than likely -of Jewish origin...	0:20:54	0:20:58
-..but who had compromised, in a way.	0:20:59	0:21:02
-So was this family forced -to convert to Christianity...	0:21:02	0:21:07
-..in order to stay here?	0:21:07	0:21:09
-Yes, according to the law -introduced in the 13th century...	0:21:10	0:21:14
-..expelling all Jews.	0:21:14	0:21:16
-It's evident there is -Jewish blood here somewhere...	0:21:16	0:21:20
-..but it goes back much further.	0:21:21	0:21:24
-She wouldn't -have attended the synagogue...	0:21:24	0:21:30
-..because her family -were Christians.	0:21:30	0:21:33
-Well, Christian Jews.	0:21:33	0:21:36
-Yes. So it's true to say -there is Jewish blood there.	0:21:37	0:21:41
-But it goes much further back.	0:21:41	0:21:44
-Then it's quite probable -that this Anne Selby...	0:21:44	0:21:48
-..was the Jew who came to Llandysul?	0:21:49	0:21:51
-Yes, it's quite probable.	0:21:51	0:21:53
-Unfortunately, there is -no record of their marriage.	0:21:53	0:21:58
-It appears -the records have disappeared.	0:21:58	0:22:01
-But this fits in with the idea...	0:22:01	0:22:06
-..of a wealthy Jew...	0:22:06	0:22:09
-..who happens to come from -the same locality as Edward Jones.	0:22:09	0:22:13
-It's more than likely -that Anne Selby...	0:22:13	0:22:18
-..was Mrs Jones...	0:22:19	0:22:22
-..who presided in Llandysul.	0:22:22	0:22:25
-That's fascinating.	0:22:27	0:22:29
-Whoever the Jew in Llandysul was...	0:22:30	0:22:33
-..her remarkable character -has captured the imagination...	0:22:33	0:22:37
-..of Andrew -and her other descendants.	0:22:38	0:22:40
-Her story has also revealed -a hidden chapter in Welsh history.	0:22:41	0:22:45
-Nothing has changed -but I feel reassured.	0:22:45	0:22:48
-I'm pleased to be able to say...	0:22:48	0:22:50
-..that I am a direct descendant -of Anne, the Jew from Llandysul.	0:22:50	0:22:54
