Hi Judith
Thank you so much, Hugh Rogers was a mariner so they are away at sea for quite a few of
the census' Whe home they are either in Caernarfon or Liverpool, I'm afraid I
have left all my stuff at work, but off the top of my head, they appear as Royers on one
census. They had 9 children all born between 1839 and 1855, and I have found all of them,
they appear as living with a Jonathon Roberts on one census and he is listed as their
father but I know its Hugh and Grace's children and I think they must have been
gardians while Hugh and Grace were at sea. I will email you tomorrow with all I know
about this family, which in truth is quite alot but one of the children married a first or
second cousin and I am trying to work out how they were related and think it must be a
daughter of Grace's sister, if you follow that!
Thanks for all your hard work
Vicki

Hi Vicki,
I've had a look for you on Ancestry but can't seem to find Grace or Hugh
or Thomas! Where were she and Hugh living in 1841? Did they have a son
William b Festiniog 1839?
If you have her on later censuses, where do they say she was born?
Do you know where the Samuel surname originated?
Will try again if you can send a few more clues.
best wishes, Judith

Subject: [GWYNEDD] Trying to trace Grace Samuel
Hi
I am hoping someone can help me please. I am trying to trace an ancestor
Grace Samuel. I know she married Hugh Rogers and I have found her on the
census records when she is married to him and know about their children.
I am desperately trying to trace her parentage. I have a family history
written by my great grandfather which says Grace was the youngest daughter
of a Thomas Samuel, a ship and boat builder from Caernarfon, however I can
find no record of Thomas Samuel or a birth of Grace Samuel in 1814 either in
Bangor or Anglesey. I have found some inaccuracies in this history so it is
possible her father was not called Thomas.
Main question is can anyone look at christening / birth records for a Grace
Samuel in 1814, Anglesey or Bangor.
I also thought about getting her marriage certificate to Hugh, their banns
were read on September 9th 1836 in Bangor, but I do not know the exact date
of marriage and the banns give no other details other than their names.
Many thanks in advance
Vicki
