Dear Bromaelor
This is wonderful! You obviously have a lot of reference points to hand, thank you very
much indeed!
There have been a great many gaps in my research of the Davies line. I found Henry's
mother Mary in the 1861 census as a widower with her two sons in Rhos. In 1851 I
discovered Henry and James living with their grandmother Elizabeth Dodd in Moreton Above,
by which I deduced their mother's maiden name, but no sign of their mother. No idea of
their father's identity until now, all I could determine was that he died before 1861.
Sorry to labout a point, but do you mean John Davies married Mary Dodd in 1838, or was
Henry married to Mary and John born in 1838?
The note you mention on the map suggests the latter. Actually I've not heard of the
map you mentioned, where could I examine a copy do you think? (Sorry I'm not local to
Denbighshire, having just returned to the UK from many years overseas).
Thank you so much for your generous help.
