	I have just got my grandads marriage certificate and his fathers name was Evan Davies. He was deceased before the marriage of his son William Evan Davies on 13th October 1900. Evan Davies was a shoemaker. William was living in Burnswick House Plas Road Llandudno. William was born in Abergele Wales about 1875/77 and he was at one time a postman and his father Evan would have been born around 1860? Regards Pauline

	Hi. Yes the son was a postman on his wedding day. I made a mistake about his birth year. It was unlikely he was 15 when his son was born so he may have been born about 1850. Unfortunately I don't know his wife's name and I don't know he was born in Abergele only that William was born there.
