Today we remember the 101 men and boys who tragically lost their lives at 1.15am on the 10th of December 1880 in the Naval Colliery disaster, Penygraig.
Of the 101 that passed, we at the Friends of St Johns are custodians of the graves of 25 souls buried there, who include members of the Lewis, Fry, Brooks and Roberts families.
We pay our respects to the families of those lost and reach out to their relatives in the hope of gaining information on them. May they rest peacefully.
