	No, ...don't give up. It's not easy with these common Welsh names I know. I'm chasing a Hannah Davies, ... and I'm spoilt for choice, ..Lol If you are fairly sure on the husband's death certificate, could you use that information to find a burial for him and maybe find his wife buried there too. The cemetery record should give her date of burial / death and hopefully you could then buy the correct certificate. Have you considered that the mother could have remarried? We've found some really unexpected marriages of older people who've been widowed. Gwyn

Member Since: January 2008 Posts: 214 Send Message	My GGGm Mary Morris is on 1881 Census RG11Folio5311/74 Pg7.By 1891 only her daughter Elizabeth Morris is there in 2 Gilfach Cynon Merthyr Tydfil.Presumably both her parents died.I believe I have her fathers death certificate the occupation and the age is right.Although the address is slightly different and the informant was his brother.I had sent for a death certificate for her mother,this morning a very kind lady from the registry office rang to check some details and its not my Mary Morris.Question is where do I go from here or do I give up?
