OK

My father Thomas Edward Jones was born at Pen Nebo Bont-ddu (Bontddu) Wales Merionithshire 25/3/1931.

His Parents were William Jones b 13/11/1908 - Rosina Griffith b1908

I have done pretty well with Rosina's side and to some extent Williams and to that end its Williams i need help with please.

William Jones was 1 of 10 Children born between 1898 & 1917. Catherine, Mary, Ann Ellin, John, GWEN (STILL ALIVE nearly 101) Edward, Robert, Evan, Margaret (still alive nearly 90).

Gwen and Maragret have told me so much about family life etc

Williams parents were Edward Jones b 1862 d 1943 & Ann Price Jones b1877 d 1941. Thet were married at Gilgal Chapel Maentwrog Nr Trawsfynedd in 1898.

In 1900 they lived at a house called Tyn-y_Ceunant, Bryncelynog near Trawsfynedd. Catherine was born here in 1898. But by 5/1/1900 Mary was born with them just down the road at a house called Glascoed.

In 1902 they moved to Cefn-Cam Ganllwyd and around 1910 to Gwndwn-Uchaf and about 1915 to Hafod y Fedw, llanelltyd.

Edward Jones was born in 1862 and came from a small farmstead called Hafod Ty Newydd In Betws Gerfil Goch(probably denbighshire) near Corwen and had one brother called............?

Ann Price Jones mother was Mary Edwards b ?
Mary Edwards mother was Ann Price b ? She lived at Cae-Gwair, Cwm Prysor.

I would really like to chase the Jones side back but any info On MAry Edwards + Ann Price side would be appreciated.

I know there is a lot of info above and the Welsh names are off putting but i have struggled through to this point and would love some help................please !

I have been to all the dwellings with my father and would love to tie it up a bit more for him.

I have dob & dod for all Williams Siblings.

THanks for looking this far and hope you can help
