Thanks for your help

What I know (and it'sobvious that it's not much!) is that Evan Jones b.1818 of Morfa Bychan married an Ann b. c1819 of Llanengan. They had 6 children, including Mary.
Mary then married Hugh Jones b.1862 d.1917 both in Morfa Bychan. They went onto have 9 biological children before adopting another child in Jan/Feb 1917.
I shall be very careful what I put in any further posts so that I don't create any confusion.

Just re-posting to show that Hugh's birthplace bears no resemblance to that originally suggested

Are you assuming that Mary's maiden name was Jones because Ann is Hugh's Mother in law?

Ann could have married more than once.............

As there are numerous possible births for Elizabeth (not Betty) I would advise that you obtain this one...............for facts about the mother's maiden name

Jones Christiana Jane Festiniog 11b 375

Morfa Bychan is located just over 2 miles away from Portmadoc (now Gywnedd)
In its time it has been within the boundaries of Gwynedd, Caernarvonshire (and possibly) Merionethshire

Andy

You've found the family that I'm looking for.
Ann Jones aged 82 was the mother of Mary, wife of Hugh.

It is their marriage I can't find any record of. I know that Mary's father was called Evan and that he was from Morfa Bychan, whereas Ann was from Llanengan, Caernarvonshire.

Sorry for any confusion on the location of Morfa Bychan.

Thanks Ann....we do need fully accurate info from the poster

Looks good, Andy

'528' is outside the page range for the period/area

I've asked Jill to come back and tell us exactly where "her" Morfa Bychan is

Just a thought.....

Andy

just googled again - there is more than one Morfa Bychan in Wales!! Peembrokeshire, Gwynnedd, Ceredigion

Betty Jones is remarkably rare. only 4 on 1891 census. Must be registered under a different name.

Andy

County boundaries have changed since the 19th century...........probably explains the difference

when I googled it came up as Ceredigion!! sorry folks

I can't see a family on 1891 Wales census to fit the info given

Where have you got your info from? I can't see the family on a census.
