Recently I emailed Arturo Roberts, editor of the Ninnau seeking information on a St. David's Society or Welsh group in Asheville, NC where I recently relocated. His reply surprised me. He knew of no organized group and in fact, replied: "we have few subscribers in North Carolina and only one in Asheville."
