I'm looking for a Richard Jones who on the 1881 Census was living in
Pontygwaith, Llanwonno, Glamorgan but his birth details (abt 1856) states
born
Cardigan. (no specific parish) He is dead by the 1901 census so I haven't
got that
to go on.
He married a Mary Hughes from Llanidloes in the parish church of Llanidloes
in December 1877. On the marriage certificate it lists his father as being a
Richard Hughes ( a leadminer) thought that surname must be a mistake???? It
also says that Richard was residence in Ffestiniog (that GENUKI says is in
Merioneth??) at the time of marriage. Witnesses were a Mary Rowlands and
David
Morgan but i'm guessing these were from Llanidloes anyway.
any ideas as to where to look will be appreciated
