[CMN-L] Newchurch, Carmarthen
Hi Pauline
Thank you also for your kind offer. I don't have much more
information other
than what I sent to Sian as below - there were no other children as
far as I
know - at least none that survived. The boy Aaron probably bp at
Caernarfon
[born there] that I must look for but the girl Jane Caroline was born
in
Carmarthen - at least her birth was registered at Carmarthen during
the
March qtr 1859. so should be baptized somewhere in the area. After
the Rev
Aaron Rbts's death at the age of 49 yrs we have his wife - who was
born in
Caernarfon - becoming the matron at Wellfield Rd High Grade School
[1891
census] but as previously mentioned, in 1901(census) - death
registered June
qtr - she was a boarder living on own means at Quay Head and it's
obvious
that she was unwell as her sister was staying there caring for her. I
don't
know when he left Caernarfon other than after the birth of the son in
Sept
qtr 1857 and Jane was born as mentioned in 1859. He was at Newchurch
described as incumbent of Newchurch and chaplaincy of God? in the
1861
census. Was he at another church in the Carmarthen area prior to 1861
but if
his children died after he became vicar of Newchurch one would have
expected
them to have been buried there unless he was elsewhere and a child
died soon
after birth between March qtr 1859 and 1861 and they purchased a
grave at
that unknown church. A possibility I suppose. There are quite a few
Roberts's on the BMD during that period including two Mary's in 1860
and
his mother's name was Mary. I'm afraid that's all I can
tell you
about them.
Thank you for going to such trouble
Regards
Angharad
