Trying to find any info about my grgr gran catherine lewis i think she was born in swansea roughly 1877.
In 1897 she had a daughter who was born in the union workhouse in swansea,the baby was firstly named as Mary-Maud,but the day after her birth she was renamed as Alice May Lewis.
Alice later went on to have two children a son named daniel and a daughter named dorothy my grandmother.
I think Catherine was either one of twelve siblings or she had twelve children herself.
She also possibly married a man named William Marks as dorothy had the surname Marks.
Do not know a great deal about William.
If anyone has any info that would be great,
Many Thanks,
Helen.
