Where is your Welsh great-grandmother from? I have Welsh ancestors (1850s) from Pembroke, who moved to Methyr Tydfil.

And my mother's side is Hungarian, German and possibly English, but could also be German. My great, great grandfather was living in South Africa, a German region, with a German wife, but all I know is that he was a British subject, and after moving to Moscow to open a business with his sons and a nephew (his German wife's brother's son who was born in London - are you keeping up with this?), the family registered the births of their sons at the British Consulate, Moscow. The wife eventually moved to England, but I don't know if that was because her brother was there, or because of her husband. She had at least 9 children, and at least one daughter moved to England. The surname was Block, which could be English or German. I just can't find anything about him.
