Dear Gordon,
I don't know very much about my JOHN PARRY's family. He appears to have
been a seaman before becoming a farmer.
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, Caernarvonshire. He must be related to the Parrys of
Tre-Gynrhyg, Llanbadrig/Llanpatrick, but I can't make a direct tie.
Tombstone in St. Eleth's Churchyard, Amlwch (B002 )
Sacred to the memory of ANNE THOMAS, daughter of JOHN THOMAS, Gentleman,
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.
Here are the children of John Parry and Anne Thomas, 4 of whom survived:

I have some Parrys (earlier than yours), originally from
Caernarvonshire.
I have a 2g-grandmother Catherine PARRY born Llanllyni, Caernarvonshire
1814/5, married Ellis WILLIAMS at Llanllyfni 1836.
Any chance of a connection?
