Hi Carol
I have PR's for Ruabon and have been unable to find either the birth or
marriage of Phillip Roberts or his children. The PR's cover the period
1813-1853 (marriages only to 1843). Phillip is - in my view - a fairly rare
forename, so I searched all the indexes for Phillip Roberts, regardless of
timescale.
Baptisms:
May 24 1813 - Roberts, Phillip s/o Robert (Farmer) and Ann, of Gafailie.
Apr 9 1823 - Roberts, Phillip s/o Hugh (Blacksmith) and Rebecca, of Ponkey
The IGI covers Ruabon baptisms to 1837 and I can find no trace of a Phillip
Roberts. See:

nbigh.htm#R
I'd suggest you join the rootsweb Clwyd mailing list as there are a large
number of very knowledgeable people willing to help.
Good luck
Linda

Subject: [DEN] Roberts in Ruabon
I am trying to trace a Phillip Roberts He was born about 1834
in Ruabon. He married Elizabeth (but I don't know who) before
1854. I have him on the 1861 census in Cefn Maur? Ruabon with
Elizabeth his wife and two daughters. Mary Ann 7 and Alice 6
months(born in Ruabon. By 1871 he had come to England and was
living in West Hartlepool and then he moved to Salford. I
have not been able to find him on the 1851 census and on the
1841 census I have found a Phillip Roberts but he is 10 and
living with the Williams family in the township of Talhaiarn
so I don't know if this is the right one. Does anyone have
access to parish records for Ruabon who could see if they
could find the baptism of Phillip and/ or marriage? I would
be so grateful.
Carol Billington
