Dear list,
An enquiry from a cousin has rekindled an interest in my Brychdir, Aberdaron
family. They were William GRIFFITH (ca1795-1874), his daughter Catherine (b
ca 1823 in Aberdaron) who married John JONES (b ca 1821 in Aberdaron) in
1844. John was the son of Thomas JONES of Zolum (?) which puzzled me at the
time - I was convinced I had misread the residence.
They had children including my gt gt grandfather (Captain) Thomas JONES b ca
1852 m 1885 d 1886) and Mary JONES who married an OWEN - and had a son John
OWEN who bought Brychdir in 1912, dying in 1926.
As you can see, I haven't delved into this side at all really having been
put off a little by the profusion of Thomas and John JONES in Aberdaron!
I have the census details and MIs for most of the above, apart from John
JONES and his wife Catherine of Brychdir who died post 1891.
Does anyone else have interests in Aberdaron that might overlap or have any
info?
I am due to go to Caernarfon next week to relook at all the PRs and land tax
&c.
TIA.
Yours,
Ian
