To Philip Hodgkinson, Roxann and others,
I am searching for information on Mary Jones possibly the daughter of
Ellis JONES who married David ap Evan Powell (or Howell) later known as
David EVANS. David and Mary married 23 Aug 1690 in Philadelphia Co., Pa.
David, his parents and brother, Philip and David's first wife, Gainor, and
their three daughters came to Pa. from Merionethshire, Wales about 1684.
David and Mary lived in Radnor, Pa. and had property close to Ellis Jones.
Does any of this ring a bell with you or with any of you other researchers
out there?
Also, I have the name of Llanvachreth Parish in Merionethshire, North Wales
as the area David and his family lived in Wales, but cannot locate
Llanvachreth Parish on any map I have found. Can anyone help with this?
Will be more than happy to share info. Thanks in advance,
Betty Evans Riley WV-USA

Roxann--- I am doing research on a Dr. Edward JONES b.1645 in Bala,
Merionethshire, Wales. His father was a John LLOYD b. ca. 1594. I have this
line from Edward who came to Penn. in 1682, through his son Evan into New York
and then Evan's son James who was a British Loyalist and fought for Butler's
Rangers in the Revolutionary War and then settled in Grantham Twp., Lincoln
Co. Ontario, Canada. If this sounds like it might fit i would be glad to fill
you in on what i have. Kindest Regards, Philip Hodgkinson, Ohio, U.S.A.
