Would any "lister" be so kind and see if there are any Morris Owen[s]
getting married to a female named Jane [maiden name unknown] I have found two but
am wondering if there are any more especially if they have a daughter
Elizabeth Ann who was born 1883I have been trying to find the birth of an Elizabeth
Ann Owen[s] , on her marriage certificate it said she was living in LLandegai
when she married and that her father was Morris Owen[s] a slate
quarryman.The registery offices in Anglesey say that they have no record of an Elizabeth
Ann born to a Morris Owen. Without this birth how may I find out her
mother's maiden name. There does not appear to be any brother's or sister's whose
birth I might check out to obtain the mother's maiden name.Believe the Owen
family in the 1891 census is the one ,but need to confirm the birth to make
certain. Are there parish record available for the Llandegai/Tregarth area which
I may obtain to have a look at. Also like to thank the listers who have
helped with my previous requests.Any help appreciated. Thankyou Alun.
Hi Robert
Would you please let me know where the Anglesey Marriage Index is available?
I use mainly LDS films for my research & they have not been allowed to film
Parish Registers for the Church in Wales, only BTs. Makes research over
here a bit more difficult!
Thanks for your help

My great-grandmother was Ann Jones, born Dec. 10, 1862 in Amlwch, Anglesey.
Her mother was Mary Jones, nee Williams, born 1833 in Llandyfrydog, Anglesey
(from the 1881 census - although it lists Ann as age 21 which would have put
her born in 1860). The 1861 census shows John, a mariner, 1831, Mary 1831,
and 3 children. In 1871, it shows Mary 41 as a mariner's wife. John, it
appears is at sea. They are apparently both buried at Llanelian church,
Anglesey. I know nothing else about them.

Can anyone help me please. I have just recently discovered my grandmother's family in Holyhead. Michael and Winifred Callaghan appear to have migrated from somewhere in Ireland in the early/mid 1850s. They had (at least) 3 sons: Michael b. 1851 in Ireland, Thomas b. about 1854 (Ireland or Holyhead) and Edward b. about 1857 in Holyhead. Does anyone have access to information or records that can tell me more about this family?
Thanks in anticipation.

With birth dates after 1837 you will be able to order a birth certificate
for at least Thomas (if born in Anglesey) and Edward (born Holyhead)....do you

The Patriarch of Tregaean
In NLW MS 9081, a 1675 history of Beaumaris containing both original and
transcribed documents from various Anglesey sources including the Civil War
period, church notes, rentals, names and families in the burrough of
Bewmares & the liberties thereof alphabetically digested amongst other
things, there is the following very detailed and interesting document
described in a footnote as a transcript out of Mr Rob. Owen of Beaum- his
pap-, who copied it out of another written by Dr W Griffith Chanr of Bangr &
S. Asaph &c. The date at the top of the transcript is the 11th March AD
1581 but the handwriting is mid-late 17th century. I hope that the
following might be of some help to someone on the list and will be of
general interest to all.
In ye parish of Tregayan in ye County of Anglesey there lived a man of ye
age of 105 years called Wm ap Howel ap Dafydd ap Jerwarth He married 3
wives the 1st called Ellen fch Wm, of whom he begat 22 children the 2d
called Kath fch Richd of whom he begat 10 children the 3d called Ellen fch
Wm, now living, of whom he begat 4 children.
He in his time had 2 concubines the one called Jonet fch Wm, of whom he
begat 2 children the other called Lleiky Lloyd of whom he begat 5
children: The number of his children in wedlock begotten were 36 & by his
concubines 7 in all 43 His eldest son called Griff: ap Wm now living &
dwell in Anglesey 84 years old who hath children and childrens children
to the 3d and 4th geniracon, a gt number
His youngest son likewise called Griff: ap Wm, is now living in the sd
parish 2 years old and œ - so that there is 81 years and œ bet. Ye age of
the sd children. His eldest daughter called Alice fch Wm is now living in
Angelsey of the age of 72 years twice married, who had many children and
childrens children to a gt number. There be living at this present time in
the sd parich of Tregayan above 80 persons wch descended from ye body of the
said old man.
It is reported that the children and childrens children & the offspring of
them descended from the body of the sd old man & born in his days whereof
some be living & some be dead amount to ye number of 300 persons.
The sd Wm ap Howel ap Dav ap Jerwarth was a man of mean stature, of good
complexion, never vexd with colick & stone, seldom sick, of moderate diet &
livd by husbandry & tillage altogether delighted exercised in fishing &
fowling have his sight, memory, & sense perfect until his last end.
A fascinating report of a man who I imagine, without having any other facts
to back myself up, of being of poorer yeomanry or labouring stock; so
belonging to a group of people under-represented in the records that we have
available today. As such, I imagine that without his prodigious fecundity
we may not have known his name today.
Particularly noteworthy in the transcript is the fact that (at least) two
of his sons shared the same Christian name Griffith something that I
have read about but never seen a direct example of.
I wonder whether on the list there is anyone researching Tregaean ancestry
that can claim descent from one of Tregaeans founding fathers?

I am having computer probelms today but when I get back on my own computer I
will send you an account I have of housing in especially the Port of Amlwch
and the terrible conditions......sue
One of my ancestors died in Amlwch in 1849 of cholera (according to her
tombstone). She was a widow in her 80s so any epidemic might have hit
her particularly hard.
Cholera is caused by water contaminated by sewage, I think. In 1849
would most houses in Amlwch have had indoor plumbing? Town well? The
family were comfortable middle-class.
Does anyone else have an ancestor who might have died around the same
time of cholera. I don't think this could be one isolated case.

We visited Wales fall of 2003. Searched census records and found the
Henry Roberts family living on the Pentre Felin
farm in the Parish of Landrygarn in 1851. Farm located about 3 miles
East of Trefor. Henry 43, Jane 35, Henry Jr. 4
William 1 and John 11. In 1871 we found Jane ( widow) Henry Jr.
Married and Elizabeth 19 and Catharine 15.
Henry and Jane are both buried at the Parish Church in Llandrygarn.
Henry Jr. is also buried there (1933) and Hugh
Elias (in same grave 1955.
Catharine Roberts married to Wm. Williams 1878. Henry Roberts married
to Margaret Jones 1904. Sydney Roberts (widow)
married Owen Williams 1898. We found that Elizabeth Elias was a
witness for Catharine's Marriage. We think that she was
married to an Elias and their son was buried in the same grave with
Henry, Jr. We think Hugh Elias was still on the
Pentre Felin farm until he died in 1955. Hope we can find some
distant relatives. Henry Roberts was my g-grandfather.

Ian,
I always perk up at the mention of Parrys in Aberdaron, as I have a John
Parry, born there in 1726 (according to Griffith's Pedigrees of
Anglesey...). He moved to Angelsey after marrying Anne Thomas.
Apparently he was originally a seaman but became a farmer. Here is what
I have:
JOHN PARRY was born in Anelwog/Amelwog, Aberdaron, Caernarvonshire in
1726. He and wife ANNE THOMAS (1733-1812) moved to
Llanpatrick/Llanbadrig, Anglesey after their marriage at Rhosgyll Fawr,
Eifionydd, Caer.around 1770.

late of Rhosgell Fawr in the Parish of Llanarmon in Eifionydd/Evionydd,
Caernarvonshire, and late wife of JOHN PARRY at Tre-Gynrhyg Fawr in the
parish of Llan-Patrick,, who died on the 23rd day of June in the year
1812, in the 79th year of her age. Also, the above named JOHN PARRY late
tenant of Tre-gynrhyg in parish of Llanpatrick, who died on the 11th of
March 1825 in the 89th year of his age.

Iolo,
I presume that you mean the 1670s? Meaning that your and Griffith's John
Parry could be one and the same?
I have had a similar problem recently with Henry Prichards and Richard
Parrys in Aberdaron. All I can say is that you need to look at all
possible
contenders and not just in Penrhosllugwy. Have you gone through all John
Parry wills, for example? I am afraid that it's a case of that.
Yours,
Ian

Hello Listers
Just wondering if anyone has any interest in the Williams's from Llandegfan.
John Williams Llandegan marrried Ellin Williams from Llanrchywedd [hope that
is correct] about 1879.
On the 1901 census there are four more children, 3 girls, Jemima 13, Lily 9,
Maggie 5 and a son Griffith 11.
Would love to know what happened to my great aunts and uncle.

I would bo most grateful for any information about the Parrys of Bodafon Issa, Penrhoslligwy, and most particularly John, the son of Harry Parry and Elizabeth Bulkeley, born probably in the 1770s.
I have an ancestor in Penrhoslligwy called John Parry, who was married to Anne, and his children were
Mary 1695
Ellen 1701
Hugh John Parry 1705.
It would be quite tempting to equate this John Parry with the son of Harry Parry, but with such a common name I would like to be on slightly more solid ground before taking a leap of faith.
I undertand from the Wilperf database that the Parrys of Bodafon Issa is on pages 105 and 80 of the Pedigrees of Anglesey and Caernarfonshire Families.
Alun - we haven't forgotten you! We have found 2 possibilities in Amlwch
but have not had time to check things out. Will get back to you soon.
