I am still looking for information RE: Moses Parry and his brother John Parry who m.
Margaret Jones. The junior Moses Parry, b. 1799, m. Elizabeth Roberts, dau. of Andrew
Roberts & unknown wife. Elizabeth Roberts Parry who d. young. Their dau. Elizabeth
Parry was the mother of Henry Morton Stanley. The senior Moses Parry, m. Ann Parry.
Moses, Sr. (the care giver of John Rowlands) d. in the summer or 1846. By which time the
Parry family was living in the white cottage on the Denbigh Castle green. Moses, Jr. was
running a slaughter-house nearby. Following Moses' death in 1846 John Rowlands was
boarded temporarily by a nearby relative. The finacial bargain fell through and at that
point John was taken to St. Asaph Workhouse.
My lineal ancestors are John Parry, brother of Moses Parry, Sr. & his wife, Margaret
Jones. Alice, d/o John & Margaret (Jones) Parry, m. William Williams, my G2
grandparents.
Henry M. Stanley was the illegitmate son of Elizabeth but a cloud remains over his
paternal ancestry.
