Hi everyone,
Thomas Jones, one of my ancestors left Wales about 1888 to sail to Canada. He was born
in Llangurig, Montgomeryshire but I think I have found him working as an "Iron
baller" and lodging in Merthyr Tydfil in 1881. I am hoping someone can tell me from
which port he would be likely to have sailed and also where he would disembark on arrival
in Canada. His final destination was the Kamloops area of British Columbia and I will be
grateful for any help and suggestions.
Regards,
Margaret Harvey
