Message Board Post:
Following upon my recent visit to Dolgellau (in September), I now know that my gg
grandfather John Jones (b1805) was born into the family headed by John Richards(b1774 in
Mallwyd) and Hannah Morgan (b1778 in Llanymawddwy). John Richards was the illegitimate son
of Richard Griffiths and Margaret Williams, although Richard Griffiths married a Blanch
Owen in 1776 in Mallwyd. Hannah Morgan's parents were Morgan Jones and Hannah ?? in
Llanymawddwy.
I do know also that John Jones had three siblings (Sarah b1801, Rowland b1802 and Simon
b1809). My next venture here is to see if there are any school or church records relating
to this family in Llanymawddwy for the years 1801 to 1834.
It does not appear likely that I will be able to visit Dolgellau again very soon, so if
anyone on this list has any information about the above people, I will be very grateful.
