When you are walking around the pathways of Llansteffan, do you ever wonder about the people who walked there years and years ago? Are you curious about the people who built the houses you see in the streets? Would you like to know something about those who lived and worked in them? Are you interested in History in general? Then join the Llansteffan History Society, which was founded in 1981 and is still flourishing.

My great grandmother Sara was born in Llansteffan on 29 th October 1845 to Samuel and Mary James. She married Joseph Malyon from England and and emigrated to New Zealand in approx 1873. She visited Llansteffan twice during her life in New Zealand. My name is Sue Muir and I live in New Zealand I would like to come to Llansteffan to see the place she loved and missed and meet any surviving relatives if you know of any or if you can tell me any information regarding Sara’s family please?
