Hello Graham,
This may be of some help; Sydney was often used for a girl's name in my
family.
John David married Jane Robert ca. 1720. They lived at Ty tan y graig,
Llanfawr and had a daughter Modlen (Magdalen) who married David Evans-date
unknown- and lived at Cadwst, Llandrillo. David Evans died 1767. They had a
daughter Sydney, known as Sydney Davies.
A Sydney Davies married another David Evans 11/2/1785 at Llanfawr. Is the
marriage you quote a second marriage?
See the wills of Magdalen Jones of Cefn y Meirch 1748 and her daughter Jane
Robert of Ty tan y graig.
Dear Edward,
I was *most* interested to read your message, as my JONES and DAVIES
ancestors farmed at Cadwst (latterly Cadwst Bach/Fach),
Llandrillo-yn-Edeirnion from the 1770s for almost 200 years.
Please contact me off list if you wish to exchange information, as I
'lose' my DAVIES family just about the time of your David EVANS's death.
The 'David' in D. EVANS and my 'DAVIES' might just be a patronymic link.
Cheers (with breath bated),
Trevor (York,UK)
