I have a Jones mystery that I am struggling with and maybe
someone with access to 1871 census where relationships to head of household
stated, could help. All down to youngest daughter Adelaide 1 (rest of 11 children
born after 1871 but Elizabeth seems to have died young) are my family,
but question is what relationship if any are Mary Ann (JONES ?), Edwin
25, William 20, and Richard 20 ? If Mary Ann was Williah Henry's mother,
why did she name another son William as well? Census Place Wellington, Shropshire |

| I have been unable to obtain any proof of the birth of my grandfather John Edward Jones in Rhyl, North Wales, in Nov. of 1885. He served in the Cheshire regiment before 1912, and then emigrated to Canada. He married Minnie Williams. His father's name was also John Jones, and he was also living in Canada when WW1 began. He had two brothers, and all four served in the war. The brothers are thought to have gone to Australia and the US. One of them was living in Michigan in the 1950s. Any help will be appreciated.

| David Jones was my gggfather he was born c1827 in Enfield
Middlesex, I think, and his mother was unmarried. Her name was Elizabeth
and as far as we know she never married. He was married twice first to Mary
Anne LIVERMORE and later to Elizabeth STYLES (formerly HYATT) and lived
in Loves Row Enfield. All of my research has produced results in the Enfield
area and I presume that this is the family base. There is no record that
I can find of either his birth or his death. We have been stuck here for
about 12 years so any help would be appreciated. Ken and Diane Jones, Trunch, Norfolk |
| Edward Jones: (1) trying to find the marriage of Edward Jones to Catherine who first appeared in Hereford where his son Christopher (1781-1853) was baptised at St. John the Baptist church Hereford in March 1781: (he was later to become a clergyman). Other children were William (1783 - ?1820) and James (1785-1805). Edward was a corn chandler with a business in Wye Bridge Street in the 1790s, but he and his son Edward were declared bankrupt in 1804. There were probably two other children – his elder son and partner Edward II; and a daughter may be the Catherine Jones who was living in 1841 with Edward II’s son Albert and was buried by Canon Christopher Jones in his parish of Canon Pyon in 1848 aged 66 – and so born about 1782. Assuming that Edward was also a son of Catherine, perhaps the marriage of Edward and Catherine and the baptism of Edward took place in the mother’s home parish? No firm information is known about the death of either of these Edwards, but Catherine died at the home of her son Christopher in 1831 aged 84, so was born about 1747. Please also see below. Please Contact: Evelyn Vigeon |
| (2) The son Edward II married Ann Barnett in Worcester in 1797 and they baptised children in both Hereford and Claines, Worcester. Their eldest son Edward (1797 – 1843) married Margaret Maddox on 24 December 1820 according to a family Bible – but the location is not recorded or so far discovered. At some stage he adopted his maternal grandmother’s surname and was known as Edward Stanton Jones. Does anyone know where they were married in 1820? Please Contact:Evelyn Vigeon |
| I am having a struggle getting back beyond my g g grandfather David Jones. My father is Austin Edward Jones, died 1966 in Canada. His father is Henry Amos Jones, died in 1943 in Canada (immigrated to Canada through the U.S. around 1899). His father is Henry Jones born 1823 in Pontypool, died in Pontypool 1895 (buried in London). His father is (we think) David Jones, born about 1795 or 1797 in Pontypool?? died in Pontypool, 1876. Now the problem-David is an unknown- because of the number of Davids and because he died before the 1881 census I cannot be sure. He married Rachel Ann Williams, born about 1801,died 1874. I found "a" David in Llanllawog, Carmarthen with those "about" dates. My father, Austin, told me the family had moved to south Wales sometime in the past from north or west Wales but did not know. I need to find David and Rachel and their parents and so on back. I need also to solidify the siblings of Henry David's son, I believe there are errors in the records I received from others. I need to find the ports and dates when Henry Amos left and came to the U.S. and then to Canada. Contact William A. Jones |

| Elizabeth Jones was born in Merthyr Tydfil, Dec 24, 1827, but the family moved after her birth. The 1851 census has the family living in Merthyr Tydfil & the place of birth for the other children is shown as Swansea. However, I can't find the family on the 1841 census. Elizabeth obtained a divorce after 7 years & married David Richards in 1848/9 & had 5 children. David Richards & his sisters emigrated to New Zealand in 1855. Elizabeth later married Levi James. About 1880, Elizabeth & her descendants emigrated to Scranton, PA, USA, but returned to visit Merthyr Tydil around 1910. Any help with this family would be most welcome.

| I am trying to find my Grandfather David Jones. He was born in 1875, probably in the Rhondda, South Wales.

| I am in the process of trying to put together our family tree. At present, we are looking for the ancestors of Robert W. Jones. He was born in 1847 in Northrop Flintshire Wales. As a young man he married Jane McCutchon-this may be misspelled--and they came to the USA. She was born in 1854, I think in Scotland, but they met in Wales. Any advice you have to solve this problem would be appreciated. Please Contact: Rosemary Jones |
| I have been searching, without any luck, for the birthplace of my ggrandfather William Jones. I do not know if he was born in Scotland or Wales, nor do I know his birthdate. He married my ggrandmother, Jean Hardie, in Kilsyth in 1870. He appeared in the 1871 census and his birthplace given was Kinrosshire, Croes. Kinross being Scottish and Croes being Welsh. The parents names as given on his marriage record were William Jones and Jean (m.s. McKechnie) Jones, and they were both given as being deceased. My ggrandfather died in 1875, so I could not track him on any other census. I have searched for the marriage of William Jones and Jean McKechnie, without finding them in Scotland or Wales. When my ggrandparents were married on 18 November 1870 his age given then was 20. He could have been born after that date and before the first of the year in 1849, or he could have been born in 1850. I truly am at a brickwall. I am planning a trip to Scotland and Wales in August and would like to have found more information by that time, as I plan on visiting the birthplaces of my mother, grandparents, and hopefully my great grandparents. Any information or help you might be able to give me would be appreciated. Thanks. Pat Tribby |
| I am looking for Georgina Jones. I have listed all the Georgina Jones' born between Jan 1855 and Dec 1862-all 40 of them. Somewhere in there is my GGrandmother. Georgina was living in Camberwell, Surrey in 1883 when she got married-her age is 23 on the certificate, but I'm begining to suspect that's not accurate. She married Thomas Arnold and stated that her father was a Charles Jones, General Dealer. I have searched for a Charles Jones in the 1861 census but have not been able to find a Georgina with any of them. The witnesses on Georgina's marriage certificate were John Hamblin and Mary Ann Clawson. Mary Ann Clawson could be the sister of Georgina, aka Polly. I really am at a brickwall, and if anyone can possibly advise of what to do next, I'd really appreciate it. If anyone wants to have the references of the 40 Georgina Jones I have collected, then please let me know. Thankyou for any help you may be able to give me. Please contact: Stella |
