First I will present some of the background information, sort of painting the picture as it were! then I will pose the question at the end. Joe
INFO:-

After the death of William Jones in
1780-1847
The Buarth Y Foel Farm,Llanbadrig, Anglesey
was run by his wife Emma Jones
1788-1859 and her eldest Daughter
Elizabeth b 1820 and Son in Law
Richard Owen.
In the 1851 Census Emma is away
from the farm visiting a daughter
and family. After the death of Emma
in 1859 there was a dramatic change
( in my eyes):-
The farm which lies adjacent to
Buarth Y Foel is called Nant Y Fran
and it was occupied by :-
William Jones 1801-1864
Thomas Jones 1792-1844
Part Answer this William Jones only
appears at Nant Y Fran in the 1851
and 1861Census and he and his
family are from Canarvonshire.
So unlikely they are recently
related to the
Cemaes/ Llanbadrig/ Amlwch
Branch of the Jones Family!
The Thomas Jones is a local Llanbadrig man and
his family are shown at Nant Y Fran
in the 1841 Census.
As his wife Catherine Jones died in 1829
it seems that he took another
Wife Elizabeth Jones b 1811 .
The second wife and a part of both sets
of children are shown in the 1841 Census.
Individually they are difficult to locate but
if you find Buarth Y Foel, (listed as Buarth)
in 1841 they are on the same page.
NB[son William Jones b 1823 is not shown as he
was not at home at the time of the census]
They are listed as Nant.
William Jones b1823 We know that this
William was the son of Thomas and
Catherine from the Official Wedding records
and that his parents William &
Catherine had lived at Nant Y Fran

The question is I would like to find out if there was a family link between the Buarth Y Foel William Jones 1780-1847, his wife Emma Jones 1788-1858 and the Jones from the adjacent farm Nant Y Fran Thomas Jones 1792-1844, his wife Catherine Jones 1796-1829.
The reason I ask is because I am trying to find out if the family farm was kept in the one family when William Jones the son of Thomas and Catherine took over the
Buarth Y Foel Farm circa 1860.
I know this sounds complicated but I would appreciate you having a go for me . I am a direct decendant.
Kind Regards Joe in San Antonio.
NB. The son William Jones is unrelated to the Canarvon William Jones Family
