Find Ancestors

I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me find out some information on the family of my Great-grandmother Hannah Evans. She was born on the 1st of August. The place of birth on her certificate is Cwmlline, Cemmes, R.S.D. Her fathers name was David Evans and her mothers Elizabeth Evans nee Francis. Her father was a slate quarrier. She was one of 15 children i think, in which there was only one boy. She had 6 children with Richard John Thomas; Daisy, George, Edward, Emily, Elsie and Eileen.

I'm afraid i dont know any more than that, so any information anyone could give me would would be brilliant!

Thanks, Keelan

sorry Hannah was born on the 1st August 1890.

Hi Pippilongstocking,
Thanks for your reply! I think that this might be my family in 1891, as the names of the parents and 2 children (Hannah and Myfanwy) seem to fit. Do you know if you could find any other information?

well you wouldnt want to be an ag lab at his age!!
evan and anne are gone from 1901 so died between1891 and 1901
i think you will find that some of their children died in childhood and others were named for the dead ones,a usual practice!
