      Margaret REES was also known as Maggie REES.³ She was born on 16 June 1886, at Carmarthen, Carmarthenshire. The year is not certain as no birth certificate has been located.^4,5,2,6,7 She was the daughter of Cornelius REES and Hannah THOMAS.^1,2

In the census of 5 April 1891 at 20 Mill Street, Carmarthen, Carmarthenshire, she was listed as aged 3 born in Carmarthen, the daughter of Cornelius REES; a General Labourer, living in one room with his wife Hannah, and children Dd.

The family all spoke Welsh and English.⁸

As of 29 September 1904, Margaret REES lived at 48 Bradford Street, Caerphilly, Glamorganshire, where her first child, Annie Mary was born.⁹ Margaret was the informant on the birth certificate of her daughter, however she did not register the birth until 69 days later on 7 December. She inevitably was fined for not registering the birth before the 42 days statutory limit.^10,9,11 Shortly after the birth, Margaret moved to Cymmer, as at the time of registering her daughter, on 7 December 1904 her address was 80 Trebanog Road, Cymmer, Glamorganshire.⁹ Maggie married Herbert VEASEY, son of Sampson VEASEY and Annie White HILLIER, on 28 April 1905 at the Parish Church, Upton Noble, Somerset.¹ On 4 May 1911 at Upton Noble, Somerset, Margaret had their daughter Gwendoline.^12,13,14,15 On 6 June 1913 at Upton Noble, Somerset, Margaret had her daughter Leonora.¹⁶ On 24 November 1914 at Upton Noble, Somerset, Margaret had their only son Herbert Reginald.^17,18

As of circa 1919, the family moved to West Woodlands, Longleat, Frome, Somerset they leased the farm "Woodlands". When the owner died they had to leave the farm. Herbert's sister Leonora, and brother-in-law Sidney COLE owned a shop in Manchester and loaned them some money to set up a haberdashery, or draper shop in Carmarthen.^16,19 On 25 July 1924 at 5 Cambrian Place, Carmarthen, Carmarthenshire, Margaret had their youngest daughter Kathleen Hilda.^20,21

As a result of the 1924 "Big Strike", and the miners remaining on strike for a further six months, they lost everything and closed the shop and left Carmarthen. Initially Herbert found a job as a farm labourer in Chetnole, Dorset however this did not work out as he wanted to be his own boss. He then became self-employed.²²

In 1927 Margaret and Herbert moved to The Green, Stoford, Yeovil, Somerset. The house still remains and is called "Little Charters". The farm at the corner of the green was owned by Mr Fry. At the left-hand corner of the row of houses was a small general store. The house still remains, however the shop window has been bricked up.²³

In Stoford village, there is a small stream with a very picturesque bridge that leads to the adjoining village of Clifton Maybank. My mother recalls that she would ice skate on the stream when it was frozen. One day at the top of hill in Clifton Maybank an airship landed. There was great excitement in the village and everyone rushed up to see it.²³ The Wesleyan Methodist chapel where they worshipped three times on a Sunday is still standing but no longer used. My mother recalls that they would go to Weymouth on the annual Sunday School outing. Her mother would dress her in finery, complete with matching shoes.²³ Kathleen, her daughter, remembers that they had a big radio and they would sit round and listen to it. One day the local builder's daughter Betty Guppy had birthday wishes read out on the Ovaltinees show and my mother heard it, and the next day Betty, who was in her class at school, was held in great awe by all the children at the school.²³

From 1940 to 1958, Herbert leased Vagg Wood, in Chilthorne Domer, and he returned to his Woodman and Hurdlemaker craft, handed down from his forefathers, spanning more than 130 years. Vagg Wood was owned by a farmer,Tommy Marsh, who lived at Lower Vagg Farm. The farmer was also a Justice of the Peace, and later signed the marriage licence request for Kathleen Veasey when she married Reginald Euridge.^24,25,26,27

From 1941, Margaret and Herbert lived at 20 Barnet Close, Yeovil, Somerset. During the war, their youngest daughter Kay with her young family lived with them whilst her husband Red was serving in the Royal Marines.²⁸ Mervyn, their grandson, remembers that between 1943 and 1945, during the war, in the evenings he had to go to his grandparents to shelter from the nearby bombing at Houndscombe Camp. His grandfather had dug a ditch in the backgarden, and then covered it with wood and corrugated iron to protect it from the weather. When there was an air raid they would all clamber into the ditch. The ditch is still there today. Mervyn also recalls one day when they were making their way up from Coronation Avenue to Barnet Close, there was an air raid and the bombs came very close. The air raid warden made them jump over the hedge. Unfortunately there was a pile of manure and both him and his brother Harold were covered in manure. Grandma was furious and they had to be cleaned off before they were allowed in the house. He also remembers that his grandfather rode around in a pony and cart, always laden up with logs.²⁹

Between 1950 and 1958 they lived in Chilthorne Domer in a cottage at the top of the hill. The cottage is no longer standing, and a new bungalow is built in it's place. After they left the cottage they moved to 50 Little Sammons, Chilthorne Domer.²⁸ Marie, their granddaughter, remembers that on 6 February 1952, the day King George V died, she was visiting her grandparents and cutting the hedge with her grandfather. The large battery-powered radio boomed out three times and they announced "The King is dead, the King is dead".³⁰

Margaret died on 27 June 1958 at 50 Little Sammons, Chilthorne Domer, Somerset, at age 72. The cause of death was:
a) Uraemia;
b) Chronic Interstitial Nephritis and
c) Old Age.
In layman terms this means kidney failure.^31,32 Margaret was buried on 1 July 1958 at the Parish Church of St Mary, Chilthorne Domer, Somerset.³³

The obitituary in the local newspaper read:

Kathleen, her youngest daughter, describes her mother; as beautiful, always smartly dressed, and adored by her husband. She was extremely houseproud and very hardworking. However, she was devoutly religious, and saw Kay's birth as the "Wrath of God", as it was late in her life after her older children had grown up married and left home, and she subsequently took solace in drink.²⁸ Marie, her granddaughter, recalls that she often stayed with her grandmother and on Saturday nights they would go to the "Carpenters Arms" at the bottom of Vagg Lane. She would sit out in the beer garden and eat crisps and drink "pop", and wait for her grandmother. Later she would help her grandfather put her grandmother to bed. On one occasion granddad was furious as they found that grandmother had hidden some gin in her stone hotwater bottle.³⁰

A coal hewer was, basically, a collier who specialized in taking coal from the coal-face. In a lot of documents he would have been classed as a collier and in others a miner. To get to this level he would have served a form of apprenticeship by working as a "boy" under the guidance of an experienced collier for anything between 3 and 7 years.

In 1904 his future wife, Margaret Rees, whose father was also a Miner, was living in 80 Trebanog Road, Cymmer in the Rhondda Valley, so it is likely that they met whilst he was working and living there.^9,10,11,8
