I've hit the brick wall! I'm researching my g-great-grandparents.
Jonah Tovey b. 1847 - Father William
Elizabeth Bowdich b. 1852 - Father James
married Sept. 25, 1871
Parish Church Mynyddislwyn, Monmouth
Vicar John Griffith
Witnesses William Rogers/Ellen Rogers
Both fathers & Jonah were colliers and from Abercarn.
Children: Mary b. 1872 Wales
James b. 1875 England
Jane b. 1876 England
They are believed to have immigrated to the USA about 1882.
Alfred, Charles, Mark, Esther, Lizzie, Maude all born in Illinois, USA. but
no records as they burned in a state fire.
I have searched everywhere and they don't appear on any census,passenger
lists, immigration, etc.,other than their marriage certificate. Cannot find
their parents,siblings or children.
Does anyone have any idea of what to do now?
Any help would be most appreciated.
