    Sheep to Sugar - Wales and the Transatlantic Slave Trade

    2:30 pmEbenezer Baptist Church, Glanrafon Road, Mold CH71PA
    This talk by Liz Millman for the Flintshire Historical Society is about Welsh wool which was used in the trade with Africa. The North Wales Jamaica Society has focused much of its work on the Pennant family of North West Wales and their part in the slave trade, and also the packhorse trails and bridge as it seems that the Welsh wool mostly went by packhorses to Barmouth for shipment, certainly from Glyn Ceriog.
