Royal Hotel Rhymney: A memory of Rhymney

Royal Hotel Rhymney

A Memory of Rhymney.

Hi
Has anyone got any memories of the Royal Hotel, Rhymney and of the Lewis family who ran it until Vic Lewis died in 1956? I am researching my husband's family history and he was born in that pub!!
Thank you.

The royal hotel was my regular in 1969/75. The landlord at the time was John and Mary Lowther. The guy that was behind the bar on a regular basis was a chap called ernie. Then the next landlord was a local called man Tim Buckley. I used to play chess at the bar with is son Michael .

Lewis family, hi my husband is William philip Griffiths, his father Michael Griffiths we believe was born in the hotel to Mary irene ann Lewis in 1940, who had a brother ernest vietor philip lewis, clifford gerald lewis, sister doris lewis. Is any of this helpful, doing the family tree as we speak.
