5018:"Robert Francis Lascelles Jenner (1826–83), his eldest son, was Chairman of the Barry Railway Company, incorporated on 5 July 1865 to build a 7.75 miles (12.47 km) mixed-gauge line to Barry from Peterston on the South Wales Railway. The project failed to get off the ground due to lack of funding." Ah that's the one I was thinking of, though I knew a Robert Jenner (the one you started) held Wenvoe too, I just thought it was one person, Robert Jenner. His son might have a bit more written about him. I think your 2016 source though lifted that bit of info about him being chairman directly from the 1984 Barry centenary book! I think though the Robert Jenner I referred to in the Pencoedtre article was Robert Francis Jenner's father as he'd have only been 8 at the time. If you look further back on the sheriff list his father (presumably) was Sheriff in 1800. You'd think Robert was the only name they had in those days ;-)♦ 1020: 5282: 3689: 2715: 669: 427: 31: 1030: 152: 132: 5560: 3931: 2208: 164:, will allow all those keen to improve Knowledge (XXG)'s coverage of Women in Leadership to participate.

I was trying to stay chronological. There was weaving in south-west Wales from the pre-industrial period, and some industrialization had happened before 1860, hence the 1839 Chartism. With the decline in mid Wales in the 1860s and growth of the south Wales coalfields, the south-west became the main
