Hi I am coming to Dowlias, Wales to walk the streets and find where my great grandmother and her family lived. I know she was born on wind st, dowlias wales and moved to Lewis st in 1860. Those streets are no longer-how can I find where they were in 1860 so in2026 I can be in that spot. thanks for any help
