Help wanted about Tredegar Hibernians RFC


Genealogy researchers often land on my website... and I am always happy when I can bring pictures or informations about ruggers from the past...

This time, there is nothing I can do... but I am confident that Welsh readers could help...

I received today a kind mail from Jim - his grandfather is on the picture..- asking for some background information about Tredegar Hibernians RFC who won the Rhymney Junior League in 1910.

We are looking for any kind of stories or pictures about Tredegar RFC (there's apparently nothing at the Club) and Rymney Junior League in pre-WW1 times... Please leave a comment below if you've got any clue..

Crowd at stadium... An unidentified postcard... somewhere in England... sometimes c.1900... the rise of sports as a mass phenomenon Working class caps... middle class bowler hats... standing in a compact crowd... I really like these pictures of crowds that tell us a lot...

The Tournament is back ! Scotland - France, next Sunday at Murrayfield.... ! 95 years earlier, in 1913, France was welcoming Scotland in Paris, Parc des Princes... it was only their second encounter in Paris, as Scotland had waited until 1910 to agree to play...
