Hi,
I posted this info on the Clwyd list recently, assuming the details, farm names etc. were
all around Llangernyw area. I've since found out that Tal Eithin and Tal Eithin Uchaf
are near Llanllyfni, so I'll have to start looking around this area now.
I have been given an A4 sheet containing a family tree, one of whom at the bottom (ie most
recent) is my great grandfather. The relative who put this together lives in America. Her
(Great?) grandparents emigrated to America in 1845, so the thread has been lost a bit and
not all information is correct. However, it gives me something to go on. The area of focus
is Llangernyw, Denbighshire.
I thought I would post it on the list in case anyone recognises any names in it. Here
goes:
William Williams, (1759 1834), Tal Eithin Uchaf
married
Margaret (Morsley?) Roberts (1756-1832)
They had 5 Children:
Robert Williams 1781-1828, Tal Eithin, married Ellen Jones (1785 1847)
Griffith Williams (1786 1827) married Ann Roberts
Hugh Williams 1790-1800
Owen Williams 1794 ?, married Jane Hughes
Anna Williams 1796 - ?, married William Jones
Robert and Elens children:
Ellis (1813-1892), Tal Eithin, married E. Williams (1831-?) 7 children
John Robert Williams (1810-1870) emigrated to USA 1845, married Mary R. Williams, 6
children
Marjorie 1812-1812
Ellen 1813 - ?
Ellis 1917-? (obviously a mistake here. Assume 1817)
Marjorie 1920-? (assume 1820)
Evan (1821-?)
Jane 1924-? (assume 1824)
Ellis and E. Williams (Elizabeth)s children
Richard (1850-1922), Dolau, Llangernyw, married Grace, 7 children
Ellen, 1853 Ty Gwyn Uchaf ----- Esyllt / Phyllis (assumed children)
Robert, 1859, Dol Ifan
Margaret, 1862, Tal Diwot ------John Gwilym (not sure if husband or child, assume child)
Griffith 1867, Rhosgoch
Elis 1869, Cesarea, later Nel y Fron
Laura, 1875-1953 Tal Eithin, married Robert (surname illegible) of Hafod Wen, 5 children
Children of Richard and Grace
Ellis
Griffith
Elizabeth
Nel
Jennie
Margaret
William (emigrated to America, date unknown)
Children of Laura and Robert
Nel
Elizabeth
Gwilym
Robert
Ellis
I know Dolau farm is still in the family, but I dont have any contact to them. This is
still on my list of things to do. I also know that Jennie (daughter of Richard and Grace)
lived in Llanddoget and was a deaconess in the cha-pel there. She died early 90s. Her
brother Ellis is my great grandfather. He farmed Pyllau on the Great Orme in Llandudno and
is buried in St Tudnos churchyard. There is unfortunately no date of birth on his
gravestone.
Im only just getting round to researching this side of the family. I hope there are some
names here that some of you may recognise.
