Researching Winifred JONES born in 1862. First time in Wales, I know I'm
looking for a needle in a haystack. I've started with this list because per
the 1871 Census, there were four Winifred Jones born in Denbighshire.
Winifred Jones emigrated in 1888 to New York. She was married to Thomas
PAYNE, an Irishman, born in March, 1864. Don't know if they were married in
Wales or New York. Family tale is that her family was not happy with her
marriage to Payne. This couple had their first child in New York City, he
was Evan Payne born 8 Aug 1891. The Payne family moved west and were in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin. They had the following children in Milwaukee: David J.
born 20 Nov 1893, Roy S. born 20 Feb 1896, Griffiths John born 10 May, 1899,
and Winifred born 1904.
Any information regarding the Jones/Payne families will be appreciated.
Winifred Jones-Payne was my husband's great grandmother.
