Just checking, he was born in 1863?

You cant stop here, we've not started yet!

John James born Penrhyncoch, in the Township of Trefeurig, Parish of Llanbadarn Fawr, Cardiganshire, Wales in 1830. His headstone at Horeb Chapel Penrhyncoch states he died in Canada on 18th November 1919 aged 56. No further information known.

Any help appreciated on his life in Canada.
