I'm looking for the family of William Davies born ca 1835 at Oswestry, Shropshire,
England. He married twice, his first wife Catherine (according to 1861 census) was the
mother of at least his three oldest chilren. He is listed on the 1871 census with his
second wife Jane. His children are: John born ca 1855, Elizabeth born ca 1857 (both of
these children born in Flintshire, Wales), William born ca 1859, Jane born 1862 (both of
these children born at Liscard, Cheshire), Catherine born ca 1869, James born ca 1871,
Winifred born ca 1875 (all these born at Tranmere, Cheshire), Edith born ca 1877 and
Arthur H. born ca 1879 (both of these born at Rock Ferry, Cheshire). William Davies and
his sons were all joiners/carpenters by profession. Son John Davies emmigrated to US ca
1885 and of the other children I only know of son William Davies being married to
Catherine and having children: Elsie, Eva, Gertrude, Ruth, William, Arthur Sidney and
Norman. If anyone is researching this Dav!
ies family would like to hear from you. Both of William's wives were listed as being
from Flintshire, Wales on the UK census records.
Thanks, Susan
