Thank you for your request which I received on 4 March 2016 about a copy of Welsh Government 21st Century Schools Survey for Powys schools. The information you requested accompanies this letter. It is taken from a survey that was conducted on behalf of the Welsh Government by a contractor in 2010. Since then works may have been carried out on many of the schools listed and therefore the list may not reflect the current state of those school sites. The 21st Century Schools and Education Capital Investment Programme targets schools in poor condition and many of them will benefit from that investment. No further surveys have been carried out by or on behalf of the Welsh Government since 2010. If you are dissatisfied with the Welsh Government’s handling of your request, you can ask for an internal review within 40 working days of the date of this response. Requests for an internal review should be addressed to the Welsh Government’s Freedom of Information Officer at: Information Rights Unit, Welsh Government, Cathays Park, Cardiff, CF10 3NQ or Email: [email protected] Please remember to quote the ATISN reference number above. Y Grŵp Addysg a Gwasanaethau Cyhoeddus Education and Public Services Group You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner. The Information Commissioner can be contacted at: Information Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF However, please note that the Commissioner will not normally investigate a complaint until it has been through our own internal review process.

  • 'IARRIAGES Introduction This Volume of 'Stray' Marriages Is Published with the Hope That It Will Prove
    S T R A Y S Volume One: !'IARRIAGES Introduction This volume of 'stray' marriages is published with the hope that it will prove of some value as an additional source for the familv historian. For economic reasons, the 9rooms' names only are listed. Often people married many miles from their own parishes and sometimes also away from the parish of the spouse. Tracking down such a 'stray marriage' can involve fruitless and dishearteninq searches and may halt progress for many years. - Included here are 'strays', who were married in another parish within the county of Powys, or in another county. There are also a few non-Powys 'strays' from adjoining counties, particularly some which may be connected with Powys families. For those researchers puzzled and confused by the thought of dealing with patronymics, when looking for their Welsh ancestors, a few are to be found here and are ' indicated by an asterisk. A simple study of these few examples may help in a search for others, although it must be said, that this is not so easy when the father's name is not given. I would like to thank all those members who have helped in anyway with the compilation of this booklet. A second collection is already in progress; please· send any contributions to me.
