| I am looking for the birth/baptism of Susan or Susanna Jones in Llanbeblig area. According to the Censuses she was born between 1804 and 1808 but the year could possibly be earlier. She married Joseph Thatcher in 1821. Joseph died in 1823 and in 1828 she married John Phenix. Both marriages took place in Llanbeblig.Any help with her birth date and parents names would be much appreciated.

| I would be very grateful if anyone could assist in finding any information about a David Jones and Jane Jones (nee Williams). They had a son Robert Jones born on 17/8/1886 while living in Trevor. David is not recorded on the birth certificate of Robert's brother; John Griffith Jones (Jan 1890). Jane and her siblings are living in Nefyn with her two siblings as per 1891 Census. Jane was born c1860 and from Mynydd Nefyn. I have no idea of David birth or where he came from or disappeared to!

| My father's grandfather was a Mr Robert Richards born 1826 in Dolgelly or maybe Brithdir. Dolgelly appears to be his original home town going by the amount of addresses we have. Roberts father was Mr Morris Richards a farmer, but he had already died by the time of Roberts wedding in 1865 to Rachel Edwards. The wedding was held in Swansea, 8th Sept 1865 on the wedding certificate. Robert was 36 years old, Rachel 27 Years old. Rachel's parents were present at the wedding, her fathers name was John Edwards, a labourer, her mothers name was Ann. The service was held at Bethesda Chapel for the particular Baptists. Robert Richards had at least one Welsh sibling alive in approx 1890 named Dorothy. Roberts children were named Dorothy (b:1868 Reigate) and Eleanor Hannah --Nellie when young (b: 1879 Reigate). Robert was a police Sergeant living at Reigate Police Station, High Street next to the Congregational Church which they attended. They and the odd prison inmate will be seen in a census living in the police station. Rachel died in Reigate and Robert Richards here in Geelong Victoria Australia. I hope you find this interesting and will be happy to correspond with anyone who has any enquiry or interest or information.

| Hello, My great great grandfather was Robert Parry, born in Dolgellau around 1813. His father was Rowland T. Parry and mother was Elizabeth Humphries. His siblings were Henry b. 1805, Elizabeth b. 1807, Humphrey b. 1808, Margaret b. 1819, John b. 1815, Sarah b. 1825, William b. 1811, and Mary b. 1821. We know that Robert, Humphrey, Sarah and Elizabeth all came to America. I was wondering if there are any Parry descendents of this lineage still in the Dolgelly, Merionethshire area. Thank you. Sincerely, Jeff Powell
