What is different about Welsh family history
Welsh family history research has some unique aspects due to naming patterns, language use, and record types. Some key differences include:

2. Nonconformist religious records are important as Wales had high levels of Nonconformists.
3. Understanding the Welsh language is helpful as some early records are in Welsh.
4. Specific record types and online collections can help research Welsh ancestry, like Nonconformist records, maps, census records, and parish registers indexed at sites like Findmypast.
