Hi there,
After starting out & doing quite well ive hit a stumbling block on the Welsh side of
my family & im after some general help if possible !
Ive found an ancestor called Thomas Owen, records for him are hard to find and his spouse
even tricker. On the 1891 Census she is listed as a Jane Evans Owen, so ive been pottering
away under the assumption her maiden name was Evans, but its now been suggested to me that
may just be a family name, was that common practice ?
One source of info i think might be helpful is that they ran a pub for a while, so i
figured there would be records of this kind of thing, anyone know or have any pointers ?
Cheers,
Dave.
