I have been informed by the Ceredigion Archives that David and Martha had the following children. Jenkin 1817--died-1829 Elinor 1819 Mary 1821 Lewis 1823 (?died 1902) Martha 1825 David 1827 Anne 1933 Catherine ?1836 I know that Martha was converted to a Mormon by her husband John Griffiths Timothy and the family emigrated to Vernal Utah. An elderly relative can remember an American Mormon relative coming over to stay (Possibly with an Annie Gibbs nee Davies)/?1960 ish I think that my GGF Jenkin Davies had the following siblings Martha c1850 and Thomas c1856. It appears that their mother Mary was unmarried.(Jenkins father is stated on his marriage certificate as Jenkin Davies) Martha may have married a John Lewis and settled in Llannon and had a daughter called Mary c1874. If any of this sounds familiar please get in touch. Many thanks Amanda
