Hi Somerset Girl
The Sarah Jones seems to be a def possibility and the John Jones seems to tick the majority of boxes so I think the only way forward is to apply for some birth certificates and start there....
I think the thing that has thrown me is they are all Jones' and I am unfamiliar with places in Wales :o(
Thank you though so far it really is appreciated

Hi There
Just need some help pointing me in the right direction please. I am trying to track my welsh paternal grandmother's parentage and although I have her parents names and marriage details I am up againts one of those huge brickwalls with JONES scribbled all over it!
I am checking the census returns and coming up with a huge amount of possibilities and with the names of gret grandparents being John Roderick Jones (born approx 1888 ... think I may have found sth on him) and Sarah Jane Jones (nee Jones) born approx 1896 I am feeling lost!
Is the only way forward to apply for all poss birth certs for this lady or to take a trip to North Wales?
Any tips or advise would be appreciated
Thank you in advance
Marina
