A trip to Wales would focus on the Evans & Pugh families of Gwynedd & Denbighshire and Thomas of Glamorganshire & Monmouthshire.
As all three families trace back deep into Welsh history, the territory might expand some. Having the patronymics traced back several generations will also help. I was in contact with a couple of "cousins" in the Fron Goch area several years back. Trying to renew contact would be nice.
Considering the proximity of Cardiff to the Thomas home shires of Glamorgan and Monmouth, that would be a good starting place. There are enough historic sites tied to the family to balance research.
Gwynedd and Denbighshire, to the north, would offer plenty to see in relation to the Pugh and Evans families. Considering that the two families share common ancestry 2-3 generations back, the research would be simplified.
Back to Cardiff, and home!
