I have traced both Ann and Gwen quite happily. My problem is with Ifan, Ivan, Evan Jones.

On the above census he is an Hostler. On his daughter Ann's marriage cert (1866) his occupation is gardener and he is not noted as deceased.

I have gone back to searching for him again, but without success. Can anyone please help to track any further records for him?

Any help really appreciated.

Thanks.

Sue
