0:02:47 > 0:02:54- I remember my grandfather telling me - that he took his tuning fork...

0:02:54 > 0:02:56- ..wherever he went.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00- As a leader of the singing, - it was a key instrument.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04- It helped him strike the right note - at the start of a hymn.

0:03:04 > 0:03:08- It's been passed down the family - over the years.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11- This is his tuning fork.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13- The exact one.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15- This is David Davies's tuning fork.

0:03:16 > 0:03:20- When hit, it produces a C note.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24- Perfect pitch.

0:03:26 > 0:03:30- What would you like to discover - on this journey?

0:03:31 > 0:03:35- My grandfather's brother, - Llewelyn Davies, was older than him.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38- He was born in 1891.

0:03:38 > 0:03:44- He left Myddfai when he was - 17 years old and headed for America.

0:03:44 > 0:03:48- When I was a child, - I knew a little about this story...

0:03:48 > 0:03:50- ..but I didn't know all the details.

0:03:52 > 0:03:57- Tad-cu never told me what happened, - the actual circumstances.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01- In 1963...

0:04:02 > 0:04:05- ..there was a garage in Cwmgors - - Evan Rees's Garage.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09- It was the only place in the village - which had a phone.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13- In 1963, a phone call - came through to the garage.

0:04:13 > 0:04:17- Evan Rees realized that the caller - was Llewelyn, Tad-cu's brother.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19- He lived in America.

0:04:19 > 0:04:24- He hadn't spoken to his brother - since leaving in 1908.

0:04:24 > 0:04:29- Fifty-five years later, - a phone call came out of the blue.

0:04:29 > 0:04:33- Tad-cu grabbed the phone - but couldn't speak.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35- He just broke down in tears.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40- Something serious - must have happened years ago...

0:04:40 > 0:04:43- ..to stop them - contacting each other.

0:04:43 > 0:04:47- I still remember it - and the effect it had on Tad-cu.

0:04:54 > 0:04:58- It would be fascinating to find out - what had gone through Llew's mind.

0:04:59 > 0:05:04- He left in 1908 - when he was still a child.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06- He was only 17 years old.

0:05:06 > 0:05:11- In 1908, how did he decide - which direction to take?

0:05:11 > 0:05:14- Should he turn left or right?

0:05:15 > 0:05:18- Where did he go? Who took him there?

0:05:18 > 0:05:23- How did he reach America - in the first place?

0:05:24 > 0:05:29- Was he forced to leave - or did he leave voluntarily?

0:05:32 > 0:05:36- Geraint travels over - the Black Mountain to Myddfai.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38- He's trying to find out - why Llewelyn...

0:05:38 > 0:05:40- ..his grandfather's brother...

0:05:41 > 0:05:44- ..headed to America - when he was only 17 years old.

0:05:44 > 0:05:49- This story's drawing me to it - and it's something I can't ignore.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52- It's important - to look into our history...

0:05:52 > 0:05:57- ..to find out where we came from - and what's influenced our lives.

0:05:57 > 0:06:02- It's important to pass on - that heritage to our children.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12- Today, very few people in Myddfai - remember his family.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15- Geraint has come - to meet Lewis Jones...

0:06:16 > 0:06:19- ..who has a keen interest - in local history.

0:06:19 > 0:06:23- His family has lived here - for the past six generations.

0:06:23 > 0:06:27- I've been doing some research - into your family.

0:06:27 > 0:06:33- I've found an article - in the Carmarthen Journal...

0:06:33 > 0:06:35- ..from 1896.

0:06:36 > 0:06:42- It appears that your - great-grandfather won a prize.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45- Mr David Davies, plasterer.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50- He was successful - in the bass solo competition.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53- Dos Y Frwydr.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56- He led the signing in Bethania.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58- Yes, the chapel you attend.

0:06:58 > 0:07:03- This is news to me. - I had no idea he sang on his own.

0:07:03 > 0:07:07- This news is good to hear indeed.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10- Has he passed down - his singing ability to you?

0:07:10 > 0:07:12- Apparently so. I sing too.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15- I've sung as a soloist - once or twice...

0:07:15 > 0:07:18- ..but mostly, I sing with a choir.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21- It must be in the genes.

0:07:21 > 0:07:26- I've come full circle - by returning to my roots.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33- During the 18th century...

0:07:33 > 0:07:36- ..William Williams Pantycelyn - and his followers...

0:07:36 > 0:07:39- ..ignited the flame - of the Methodist Revival.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42- It left a lasting impression - on Wales...

0:07:42 > 0:07:45- ..particularly on small communities - like Myddfai.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47- A century and a half later...

0:07:47 > 0:07:50- ..Geraint's great-grandfather, - David Davies...

0:07:50 > 0:07:54- ..raised a family here - during another religious revival.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57- The 1904-05 revival - was characterized...

0:07:57 > 0:08:01- ..by hymn singing - and passionate preachers.

0:08:01 > 0:08:05- The emphasis on maintaining - respectable moral standards...

0:08:06 > 0:08:09- ..was often at the expense - of spiritual matters.

0:08:12 > 0:08:14- Walking through the village...

0:08:15 > 0:08:18- ..there's a sense - that little has changed here...

0:08:18 > 0:08:19- ..since Tad-cu was a child.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22- It's a close-knit community.

0:08:22 > 0:08:26- Everyone helps each other - during times of hardship.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35- When Tad-cu grew up here...

0:08:36 > 0:08:37- ..this was the family home.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40- He had three brothers - and one sister.

0:08:40 > 0:08:44- Five children and their parents, - Defi Ty Top and Lizzie Ty Top.

0:08:44 > 0:08:48- At the time, this was the last house - in the village.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50- It was nicknamed Ty Top.

0:08:51 > 0:08:53- On the exterior wall...

0:08:53 > 0:08:57- ..you can see evidence - of David Davies's handiwork.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00- He was proud of his ability...

0:09:00 > 0:09:03- ..to build a house - and raise a happy family.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07- If the family was so happy...

0:09:08 > 0:09:11- ..why did Llewelyn, - Geraint's great uncle...

0:09:11 > 0:09:14- ..leave home at 17 years of age?

0:09:14 > 0:09:19- I've been looking for the answer - to that question for many years.

0:09:19 > 0:09:20- Why did he go to America?

0:09:20 > 0:09:26- What drove him so far away - from his home here in Myddfai?

0:09:32 > 0:09:36- Geraint's parents never discussed - Llewelyn's life with him.

0:09:36 > 0:09:40- His sister, Delith, who lives - in Flintshire, has come to see him.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43- Does she have any more information?

0:09:43 > 0:09:45- Do you remember anything about Llew?

0:09:46 > 0:09:51- We know he moved to America - but do you know what happened?

0:09:51 > 0:09:54- I remember Mam telling me - when I was a child...

0:09:55 > 0:10:00- ..and maybe she told me more than - she told you because I was a girl...

0:10:00 > 0:10:05- ..but I remember Mam and Dad - had a photograph in the cupboard.

0:10:05 > 0:10:09- Maybe I asked - who the person in the photo was.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12- Mam went on to talk - about Uncle Llew.

0:10:12 > 0:10:16- He moved to America from Myddfai - after getting a girl pregnant.

0:10:18 > 0:10:23- Did he go voluntarily, believing - he couldn't deal with the situation?

0:10:23 > 0:10:26- Or did his parents force him to go?

0:10:26 > 0:10:28- Mam didn't tell me.

0:10:28 > 0:10:32- I remember her telling me - that Mam-gu Myddfai said...

0:10:33 > 0:10:36- .."That's the last I see of them. - I bury them today."

0:10:36 > 0:10:38- So he didn't depart alone.

0:10:38 > 0:10:43- They were two brothers. - Llew and Sid departed together.

0:10:43 > 0:10:47- Do you know anything of the girl - who became pregnant?

0:10:47 > 0:10:52- All I can remember Mam saying - was that her name was Olwen.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54- How do you know that?

0:10:54 > 0:10:55- How do you know that?- - Mam told me.

0:10:55 > 0:10:59- I don't know - how the conversation came about...

0:10:59 > 0:11:02- ..but she said - that was the girl's name.

0:11:02 > 0:11:06- After he reached America, - he met a girl and married her.

0:11:06 > 0:11:11- His first child, a daughter, - was named Emily Olwen.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14- That says a lot.

0:11:28 > 0:11:33- It's rather strange - that I don't know anything about it.

0:11:33 > 0:11:37- But no-one spoke about such matters - back in the day.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41- They might have been trying - to keep it quiet - a family scandal.

0:11:41 > 0:11:45- It was pushed to one side - and no-one mentioned it.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50- Now that I know this much - about Llewelyn...

0:11:50 > 0:11:53- ..it's made me want to know more.

0:11:55 > 0:11:56- .

0:11:59 > 0:11:59- 888

0:11:59 > 0:12:01- 888- - 888

0:12:09 > 0:12:12- Geraint Morgan's family ties - are in Myddfai.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15- David Davies, - his great-grandfather...

0:12:16 > 0:12:19- ..was a deacon and led the singing - in Bethania Chapel.

0:12:19 > 0:12:23- Two of his children, Llewelyn and - Sidney, left Myddfai as young men.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25- They never returned to Wales.

0:12:27 > 0:12:30- According to the family, Llewelyn - got a local girl pregnant...

0:12:31 > 0:12:35- ..and Sidney went with him - to America in 1908.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37- Why did they go to America?

0:12:40 > 0:12:45- Geraint returns to Myddfai - to meet historian Dr Russell Davies.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52- He's eager to learn how people would - have reacted to Llewelyn's news.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55- Would it have brought shame - upon his family?

0:12:57 > 0:13:01- The answer is a little more complex - than you would expect...

0:13:01 > 0:13:03- ..from looking at the plain facts.

0:13:04 > 0:13:10- There is evidence to be found - in the local birth register...

0:13:10 > 0:13:13- ..that in parishes - such as Llanddeusant...

0:13:14 > 0:13:19- ..25% of the children - were born illegitimately.

0:13:19 > 0:13:24- He wouldn't have been - the only one in this area...

0:13:24 > 0:13:27- ..to have fathered a child - out of wedlock.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31- This was soon after - the 1904-05 Revival.

0:13:32 > 0:13:37- For someone so well respected - within the chapel...

0:13:37 > 0:13:40- ..it would have been - cause for embarrassment.

0:13:40 > 0:13:44- Llewelyn, Tad-cu's brother, - went to America in 1908...

0:13:45 > 0:13:47- ..rather than somewhere - in this country.

0:13:48 > 0:13:49- Why?

0:13:49 > 0:13:52- Here's the evidence - of his departure.

0:13:52 > 0:13:55- This is the List or Manifest - of Alien Passengers...

0:13:56 > 0:13:58- ..for the United States.

0:13:58 > 0:14:02- Llewelyn and Sidney's names - can be seen clearly.

0:14:02 > 0:14:07- We can see on the other page - that they were bound for Wisconsin.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09- Here's a photograph of the ship...

0:14:10 > 0:14:12- ..they boarded - the SS Umbria.

0:14:15 > 0:14:19- Here's the most significant clue - to their choice of destination.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22- This is TE Thomas.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25- He was the minister of this chapel.

0:14:25 > 0:14:32- TE Thomas acted as some kind - of local marriage counsellor.

0:14:32 > 0:14:36- In 1881, he visited America.

0:14:36 > 0:14:42- For a time, he was a missionary - and minister in Wisconsin.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46- Within the chapel, - he already had the contacts...

0:14:46 > 0:14:49- ..ready to help Llewelyn...

0:14:50 > 0:14:53- ..build his new life - over in Wisconsin, America.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58- Alright. That's incredible.

0:14:58 > 0:15:02- There's a plaque to TE Thomas - in the chapel.

0:15:02 > 0:15:06- So it seems that someone - facilitated the move.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09- There's a definite link.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11- It's too much of a coincidence.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15- He'd already been a minister - in Wisconsin.

0:15:15 > 0:15:20- He had numerous contacts - out in Wisconsin.

0:15:21 > 0:15:24- Llewelyn and Sidney end up - in the exact same place...

0:15:24 > 0:15:26- ..where he'd been a minister.

0:15:27 > 0:15:29- That's too much of a coincidence.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47- I think the explanation - has lifted my spirits.

0:15:49 > 0:15:54- I was concerned that they had - to depart without help or guidance.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57- Knowing that the minister - had supported them...

0:15:57 > 0:16:00- ..and helped them - make their way to America...

0:16:00 > 0:16:03- ..that's a comfort, a great comfort.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11- If you're looking - for information about a relative...

0:16:11 > 0:16:13- ..who's emigrated from Britain...

0:16:14 > 0:16:17- ..the first step - is to find out when they left.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19- Look for clues in the archives...

0:16:20 > 0:16:23- ..and any family records - you have at home.

0:16:23 > 0:16:24- From 1890 onwards...

0:16:25 > 0:16:28- ..the list of people emigrating - is fairly comprehensive...

0:16:28 > 0:16:33- ..recording their point of departure - and their destination.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35- Search the records of that country.

0:16:36 > 0:16:40- The archives of America, Canada - and Australia can be found online.

0:16:40 > 0:16:44- Arwel Jones has been searching - through the records for clues...

0:16:45 > 0:16:48- ..about Sidney and Llewelyn's lives.

0:16:48 > 0:16:53- He's discovered that Sidney Davies - set up home in Pennsylvania.

0:16:53 > 0:16:58- He was a painter and married - a librarian of Cuban descent.

0:17:01 > 0:17:05- We've searched America's Census - of 1920.

0:17:05 > 0:17:10- The enquiry about Llewelyn Davies - has taken us to Colorado...

0:17:11 > 0:17:13- ..to a place called Lafayette.

0:17:13 > 0:17:17- If we scroll down, - we can see a Llewelyn Davies.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20- His wife was called Elizabeth.

0:17:20 > 0:17:24- He had three children - - Emily, Haydn and Hazel.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27- It notes that he came from Wales.

0:17:27 > 0:17:31- Here, it notes his profession - as carpenter.

0:17:31 > 0:17:35- It seems - that he worked in a coal mine.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43- The 20th century - was the golden age of emigrating.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45- At the turn of the century...

0:17:45 > 0:17:49- ..almost 100,000 sailed - from Wales to America...

0:17:50 > 0:17:53- ..in search of a better life.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56- In America, - a Welsh society was established...

0:17:56 > 0:17:59- ..centred around chapels and choirs.

0:17:59 > 0:18:03- From Wisconsin, Llewelyn - moved to Lafayette, Colorado...

0:18:03 > 0:18:06- ..to work as a carpenter - in a coal mine.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09- He arrived there - during a tumultuous time.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12- The miners had campaigned - for decades...

0:18:12 > 0:18:15- ..against the oppression - of large mining companies.

0:18:15 > 0:18:20- The company which owned the coal - mine was called Rocky Mountain.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22- It's a familiar story.

0:18:22 > 0:18:27- A large company making large profits - on the back of its employees.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31- There was conflict and bitterness - between the workers and managers.

0:18:31 > 0:18:37- Working conditions were poor. - Workers' health suffered.

0:18:37 > 0:18:42- Against this backdrop, as was common - in Wales at the time...

0:18:42 > 0:18:45- ..one man established a choir...

0:18:46 > 0:18:51- ..to maintain the miners' spirits - and in support of their cause.

0:18:51 > 0:18:55- The person who conducted that choir - was Llewelyn.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59- We have quite a lot of evidence - to support that.

0:18:59 > 0:19:04- Lafayette's local history society - has recorded a lot of its history.

0:19:06 > 0:19:11- There's a whole column dedicated - to a man named Llewelyn Davies.

0:19:11 > 0:19:14- It says he was born in Myddfai, - Wales in 1891.

0:19:15 > 0:19:18- It notes - that he was a keen gardener...

0:19:18 > 0:19:22- ..and that he kept a cellar - full of fruit and vegetables...

0:19:23 > 0:19:26- ..including apples and potatoes, - every winter.

0:19:27 > 0:19:33- He established this choir to support - the miners during the strike.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35- Here's another photograph.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38- After moving to Lafayette...

0:19:38 > 0:19:43- ..Llewelyn became - a respected member of the community.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47- Well, it's a...

0:19:48 > 0:19:50- It's a great comfort, to be honest.

0:19:57 > 0:20:01- My grandfather was active - with the unions.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04- He belonged to a union - at his workplace in Cwmgors.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08- This is all new to me.

0:20:08 > 0:20:13- It's such a shame that I couldn't - share this information...

0:20:13 > 0:20:16- ..with my parents - when they were alive.

0:20:16 > 0:20:21- Tad-cu would have appreciated - so much hearing all this.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25- It's just great to know that life - turned out so well for him.

0:20:29 > 0:20:33- Perthyn hasn't been able to find - any record of Olwen...

0:20:33 > 0:20:36- ..the girl who became pregnant - in Myddfai.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38- Without a full name...

0:20:38 > 0:20:42- ..Geraint is unlikely to find out - what happened to her and her child.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49- But there is one more surprise.

0:20:50 > 0:20:52- After much research...

0:20:52 > 0:20:56- ..Perthyn has found - Llewelyn's family in Colorado.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59- Do they have any answers - for Geraint?

0:21:01 > 0:21:02- Hello.

0:21:03 > 0:21:04- How are you, sir?

0:21:04 > 0:21:05- How are you, sir?- - Very well, thank you.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08- We understand you're our relative.

0:21:10 > 0:21:13- Well, yeah, apparently so.

0:21:14 > 0:21:17- I'm Larry Smith. - This is my Aunt Hazel.

0:21:17 > 0:21:21- Her name was Davies.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24- Llewelyn Davies was my father.

0:21:24 > 0:21:25- Llewelyn...

0:21:25 > 0:21:27- Llewelyn...- - Llewelyn was your father?

0:21:27 > 0:21:30- That's my grandfather's brother.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33- That's my grandfather. Yes, sir.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36- Llewelyn was your grandfather.

0:21:36 > 0:21:41- Did your grandfather ever give you - the reason why he left Wales?

0:21:42 > 0:21:43- We had heard...

0:21:44 > 0:21:46- ..that the brother, Sid...

0:21:46 > 0:21:51- ..had a young lady in trouble, - pregnant, in the village.

0:21:52 > 0:21:54- The story on our side...

0:21:54 > 0:21:58- ..is that it was Llewelyn - who got a girl in trouble.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00- You're kidding!

0:22:00 > 0:22:01- Grandpa!

0:22:01 > 0:22:03- Oh, no!

0:22:05 > 0:22:07- No!

0:22:09 > 0:22:11- The only thing we do know...

0:22:11 > 0:22:14- ..is that the girl's name was Olwen.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17- My mother's name was Emily Olwen.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19- My mother's name was Emily Olwen.- - We did know that.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22- Yes, yes. My mother said that.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24- Isn't that strange?

0:22:25 > 0:22:27- It is strange, it is. You're right.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29- Emily Olwen.

0:22:32 > 0:22:36- Geraint and his new-found family - have a lot to discuss.

0:22:36 > 0:22:40- Both sides are glad they have - restored the family connection.

0:22:40 > 0:22:44- ..if you want to come over to Wales, - you'll be more than welcome.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46- You have a place here too.

0:22:46 > 0:22:48- And it's no further.

0:22:48 > 0:22:51- No, I know, I know.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59- A century and more later...

0:22:59 > 0:23:04- ..the rift in David Davies's family - is consigned to the history books.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12- It might be easy for us, - in this day and age...

0:23:12 > 0:23:14- ..to point a critical finger...

0:23:14 > 0:23:18- ..but it was a reflection of what - was happening during that time.

0:23:19 > 0:23:21- I'm very glad that I embarked - on this journey.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25- Finally, - we have rekindled the link...

0:23:25 > 0:23:28- ..for Llew and Tad-cu's sake...

0:23:28 > 0:23:30- ..and everyone in the family.
