Origin of the name?[edit]

From my studies of Welsh history and the Welsh language, the prefix Llan means Church in Welsh. Additionally, a large Welsh settlement called the Welsh Tract was estabilished in Pennsylvania. I wonder if anyone can confirm this? Drachenfyre (talk) 10:43, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think could have some relevance to the show, since the Welsh Tract make reference to the one of the settling families "Roberts" and there being a "Roberts Family" in the show. I dunno. --Yllianos (talk) 17:09, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know that it has ever been established where the name came from, but you'd probably have to dig up some 1968 episodes to find out! Or, does anyone have that book One Life to Live: Thirty Years of Memories? Maybe there's something in there. — TAnthony^Talk 17:20, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

lol! Clearly a Welsh connection! There are sections of the city called: Llanfair (1177 Regency Drive) - Victoria Davidson, Natalie Buchanan and Charlie Banks and Llanfair Carriage House - Miles Laurence. Llanfair is welsh for (St.) Mary's Church! I only recently started watching this show as my work schedule changed. Up until I looked it up here on Wikipedia I had thought they were saying Landview! The current mayor is a Lowell? Another Welsh name. Drachenfyre (talk) 19:39, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
