Hallo,
I know this is probably not a list question but I was in contact some while
ago with a Neil Maddy from America. I think he lived near British Columbia
on the American side. I lost contact with him about 3 years ago and cannot
get a reply from his e-mail address. I am just wondering if any American
listers would have any idea of whether this Neil Maddy who had a brother
Evan Maddy is still using his computer in the States. Its very difficult
as I do not have an address for him. I think he had a son called Patrick.
I just want to know that he is still alive and well. We believe we were
related by our family line but couldn't prove it. We used to have such
lovely conversations in our e-mails and I just can't forget the good
conversations we had and would just like to know whether he is still around.
If anyone can help I would be grateful.
Thanks
Sue in Suffolk researching Maddy

Sarah Evans b 1824( nee Pugh) is the daughter of David and ? Pugh. Would
like to know her mothers name and siblings if at all possible.Thanks
I am transcribing an 1834 will. I am having particular difficulty with the
wife's name. It looks like Ceril. The first letter is the problem, the
rest being quite clear. Is anyone on the list able to tell me if this is a
Welsh name or come up with an alternative.
I should be most grateful for any help.
Norman
Is there a way...perhaps census results,if they go back that far,to see Thomas's siblings...I know there was David,Jane and now Roger...
Also what does freedom of the city of London mean?
http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/Corporation/LGNL_Services/Leisure_and_cult...
This might help you re the freedom of the city. I can't explain it properly to you, but it's quite an honour to be awarded such. People still get awarded this nowadays in all sorts of places. The soldiers coming back from Afg etc usually get it too.
Our censuses only go back to 1841, before that we have to rely on Parish Registers. I can look at findmypast's registers for you, for births marriages and deaths if you have aprox dates.
Ann. xx

I have been told that Sarah was a widow by 1861,as should on a census,however it is very interesting to hear that Thomas was still around in 1861 but also very confusing,unless it was another Thomas Evans (cousin even) perhaps.
Thanks so much everyone,great info. Do you think that Thomas Evans died in East London in 1857 March qtr. I think that this is him,so may order up the death cert...a bit of a gamble but the only one for the London area in that time span.
Very interesting about the Swancott name coming into the mix....The name Argoed is used in NZ and I did get told, that back many years a Jane Swancott Heiress of Argoed married an Edward Evans.
May or may not be a tie up there.
Yes Chris. That Thomas Evans that died in 1853 is the one I have ordered. It should be here tomorrow so I'll let you know.
Ann.

Sorry Stringer
I was being lazy in what I wrote. It was only Sarah as a widow who was at 42
Sloane Square in 1861.
Two more titbits. Sarah's David Pugh gained Freedom of the City of London in
1856.
In 1848 a Roger Evans milkman of 42 Sloane Square gave evidence in the Old
Bailey about a theft. This is almost certainly Thomas's brother, born Clap,
Trefeglwys in 1817.

Thomas Evans was at 42 Sloane Square in 1851 and 1861. He was presumably
running the Sloane Square business for his father in law who had another
dairy in Bartholomew Close.
This is Sarahs probate record
Sarah Evans Effects under £2000 27 Dec 1870 The will of Sarah Evans late of
42 Sloane Square in the county of Middlesex cowkeeper a widow deceased died
3 Dec 1870 at 42 Sloane Square aforesaid proved Principal Registry by Thomas
Evan Pugh of 50 Eaglefield Road De Beauvoir Town Middlesex gentleman the
brother one of the executors.
In the 1871 census David Swancott is at 42 Sloane Square. He is Sarahs
nephew, son of her half sister Jane and Richard Swancott. Davids sister
Sarah married Evan David Evans, another descendant of the Evans of Ffinnant.
He also had a dairy in London at 13 Marsham Street, Westminster.

Square, Chelsea, in debtor's prison, in an 1856 legal gazette. looks as if

I guess he died after that. There is a Thomas Evans died March 1857,East
London and that could well be him. Would like to pin point both his and
Sarah Evans's death. Both brothers got inheritance after Sarahs death and
then our story
begins. No,the Bible contains nothing but the gold feaf inscription
mentioned,on the front cover....what could it signify if not a birth,death
or marriage I wonder.
Thomas Evans's son Edward Thomas Evans ran off to NZ with Elizabeth Owen born 1854 Trefeglwys. I am wondering if she shows up in Chelsea as a servant to the Evans family 42 Sloane Square, London. Just a stab in the dark as was wondering how they would have met...him in Chelsea,her in Trefeglwys.
Also a Bible found here in NZ has Thomas and Sarah Evans 1854 written on it...that date is not their marriage date,nor either of there childrens births so it. COULD it be the year Thomas died,a commemorative bible to mark the end date of the life the spent together. There are no Thomas Evans deaths in Chelsea inbetween 1851 and 1861 where Sarah is a widow. However there are many for other places but only one in 1854 in Newtown..perhaps this could be him.Even though a child is born 1855 the dates could fit.
Hi Stringer
I'm not particularly closely related to David Pugh (2nd cousin twice removed
is the closest I've found so far). I was trying to sort out Carno Pughs with
the object of shedding some light on my Llanbrynmair Joneses with whom they
intermarry. I try always to trace down any individual I can follow in the
hope of throwing up some useful link such as a visitor in a census.
There was a burial of a Thomas Evans Sep 1854 in Llanwnog, aged 75, which
could account for that BMD death you mention in Newtown Registration
District in that year.
Are there any other useful details in that Bible of yours that would be of
interest to Trefeglwys researchers?
Nicola

Thanks for all the information. Extremely helpful. If you don't mind me
asking Nicola,why were you working on researching David Pugh,are you related
as well.
