> If anyone would please give me a clue as a good place to start researching my Father's family name in Wales that I can access through the internet. I visited Ireland earlier this month and was told that Morgan was of Welsh decent.

> AnneMorgan is a very Welsh name, yes. I have not searched it on the internet. Perhaps someone else can help there. However, three things I can pass on.
1. I recently read a book that had Morgan as a common name among the Gypsies who used to roam Wales.
2. "The Oxford Companion to the Litereature of Wales has several pages of Morgan families.
3. If your Morgan came to America a few centuries back, an excellent book is "Americans from Wales" by Edward G Hartmann, Ph.D. It also has many Morgans in it.
Hope that helps. Hazel
