Hello Ian!!
Thank you so very much! Yes, I will check that registry in Corris & will send for the
birth certificate. :)
Many thanks for the information. I'm not sure if there was another marriage for one of
Onwens parents but I do Onwen had a sister named Nell. I remember her from when I was
young but too young to really pay attention to things like that. She was just
Grandma's "Auntie Nell". She's passed away now & I don't even
know what her married surname was. But I now have a bit more leads to follow thanks to
you. :) My grandmother had an Uncle Frank, I also met him, but again too young to pay
attention. Just exactly what his relationship was to her I'm not sure. She evidently
was adopted by a family named Herdman here in Canada. I remember her telling me that one
time & it is the name which appears on her marriage certificate, along with Williams.
Her son stated her maiden name as Evans in her obituary, am not sure why but that is
definitely not the name on her marriage certificate. I'm wondering if Evans comes into
play somehow but am not sure in which way. She one time told me her ma!
iden names was Jones, but that's not the case either, which leads me to believe her
mother may have at some point married a man named either Jones or Evans??? Anyway, it
opens up more possible leads which I can hopefully find out.
Again, many many thanks for your help. I'm not that familiar with Wales and the names
of towns and such throw me at times.
Thanks much again!!
Linda
