• Alabama Welsh Society - Croeso!


    By Janice, 2016-02-01

    The Alabama Welsh Society would like to add to the Celtic legacy of the South and Alabama by bringing a Welsh presence to the public.  Alabama is home to an untold number of Welsh descendants who are invited to make their voices heard.  Most southerners know of their families Celtic ancestry if it is Irish or Scottish.  However,many are unaware that their family name is Welsh.  Surnames such as: Adams, Allen, Bowen, Brown, Cole, Davis, Edwards, Gibbs, Harris, James, Jones, Morgan, Lloyd, Roberts, James, Owens, Price, Reece, Thomas, Wynn, and Williams had their origins in ancient Wales.  If you or someone you know is a descendant of Wales or if you have an interest in "all things Welsh", we invite you to join us today! 


    Hello to all my friends!I've been AWOL of late and do apologize but its that typical summer weather that has a grip on me. I can say that I have a nice tan these days, and have been outdoors alot enjoying this wonderful Alabama sunshine. I've have worked on a book or booklet (if you will) for a few months, and feel fairly comfortable with it now. I used lulu.com for self-publication of it. It is about the welsh caves at DeSoto Falls park which includes Alot of pictures from when we were there for the AWA Gathering. I'm not a professional writer but I think I did a decent job with it. Here's the cover, and a link to puchase it. You can click this link to go to the preview page. http://www.lulu.com/content/3033507Thanks! Janice
