Hi List,
I am looking for any 20th century information on the following family who moved from
FFESTINIOG to PENRHYNDUEDRAETH at the end of the 19th century:
EDWIN JONES born 1846 Rhuddlan, Flintshire - died 1917 Penrhynduedraeth, Merioneth
married 1871 at Ffestiniog to
CATHERINE JONES nee OWEN born 1836 Ffestiniog - died 1900 Penrhynduedraeth
Children:
ISAAC WILLIAM JONES born 1871 Ffestiniog - died 1937 Llwynypia, Glamorgan
ROBERT OWEN JONES born 1874 Ffestiniog - died 1932 Penrhynduedraeth
JOHN (JOHNNY) CHARLES JONES born 1875 Ffestiniog - died after 1940 Penrhynduedraeth
JANE (JENNY) ELIZABETH JONES born 1877 Ffestiniog - died after 1940 Penrhynduedraeth
Edwin Jones, Robert Owen Jones and John Charles Jones all worked on the Ffestiniog Railway
at Penrhynduedraeth and according to the railway's employee ledger which covered 1907
to 1922 they were working at the following occupations:
Edwin Jones - Platelayer and gateman
Robert Owen Jones - Oilman and brakesman
John Charles Jones - Brakesman
John Charles Jones and his wife Mary had two sons, EDWIN JONES and GRIFFITH JONES. These
two brothers may have been born by a previous marriage of Mary's and all that is known
about them is that Edwin was in the Merchant Navy based in Liverpool.
Both Robert Owen Jones and Jane Elizabeth Jones were unmarried.
The known residences in Penrhynduedraeth of this family are as follows:
Pen-y-groes House
Brynmerrig
Pant-yr-ynn
3 Church Place
Is there anyone who has Penrhynduedraeth relatives who may know of this family?
Looking forward to hearing from someone.
All the best,
Brian
