here is a web site for our county genealogy it might be of some help for
you.
I have used it several times and have found some of my ancestors on it both
death and marriage registrations.
My wife's greatgrand mothers name was Mary Thomas and I have just found a
mrs Thomas in a censes who was my gggrandfathers mother-in law but I don't
know anymore on that.
They all lived in Hyde Park.I'll keep looking and if anything turns up I
will send it to you.

Subject: [Bla'Gwent] HYDE PARK SCRANTON TO NANTYGLO/SARAH ANN JONES
hello list
The list has been quiet recently so i thought i might pick our PA
counterpart`s
brains
Per the 1901 uk census ,at my ggrandfather thomas thomas`s public
house
The Swan nantyglo was a young lady
sarah ann jones u aged 18 born scranton usa servant
per the 1891 census sarah ann aged 8 born Hyde park america is living
with her
grandparents richard /ann thomas and widowed mother mary jones
(born)nantyglo) aged32. at 26 garn road nantyglo , to the rear of the pub.
In 1881 per the Lds richard/ ann thomas together with single daughter
mary
thomas are resident in nantyglo.
Mary obviously married married either in the UK or the USA a short
time
after april 19881
Free bmd is almost complete for the years 81-83 and i cannot find a
mary
thomas/?jones marriage in that time scale in Bedwellty or Crickhowell
districts
I would be grateful for any reply toany of the following questions or for
any other
info
Would Sarah Ann be an american citizen with passport rights etc
and would such records exist?
What, if any birth records exist for hyde park scranton for 1883?
Do any marriage records exist for the area?
Would anyone have any knowledge of passenger lists for arrivals in the
uk or from
departures from PA?
