I'm trying to locate the family of my gg-grandfather John Owen Davies who was born 11
May 1852 at Rhyl. I have his father listed as William Davies (as listed on John's
marriage record) and John supposedly had several siblings (his father married twice) but
the only names I have at the moment are: Arthur, William, Richard and Kate. The family
for several generations were joiners/carpenters by profession. At some point John Owen
Davies moved to England because he was married 1 January 1877 at Southport to Mary Ellen
Worthing. They are listed on the 1881 Everton, Liverpool, England census which is were I
obtained the birthplace of Rhyl for John. In 1885 the family emmigrated to America and
settled in the Camden, NJ/Philadelphia/PA area. I've not been able to locate this
family on the 1871 census mainly because I'm not sure where they were living at the
time. Any help or suggestions on locating this family would be appreciated. Thanks,
Susan
