Hi Bob,
just a thought: I have found from some of my research that Christian
names and surnames often get muddled. For example Owen Pritchard could be
Owen Ap Richard ie Owen son of Richard, but it might be worth looking for a
Richard Owen. I have found a few folk 'round the wrong way' to what I was
expecting!
It could also be that as his wife is listed as Catherine Evans Pritchard
he too could have Evans as part of his name, though it is possible that
Catherine was born an Evans or was given the surname as a 2nd Christian name
to perpetuate her own mother's maiden name.
Sorry not to be able to offer any concrete information!
Best wishes and happy hunting,
Judith

Hi Listers..
The various Wales census show that my Gt great grandfather Henry Pritchard
was born in 1814 , Coedana, Anglesey, Wales. I have his family with wife
Catherine, Evans Pritchard living in Taliesen Cardiganshire, Wales.
His wedding records show that his fathers name was Owen Pritchard and he
was from Anglesey.
I have not been able to find his father and family in Anglesey... Does
anyone have a suggestion.
