Yes I have those baptisms, Paul, but don't think it's the correct couple - the Moreton Above Robert was a collier and the other Robert, although more likely, had a Charles circa the time that Robert, jnr. was born.

I think all the baptisms where non-conformist - as William's list

I was hoping that the marriage entry had more than the one I had got already - pity that there are no parents listed  Cry Cry Cry

Thanks for trying  Smiley

I could do with a bit of help unravelling some of this.

As I understand it:

1. Poss Thomas Edwards and Anne of Rhiwaedog
    m 5/3/1772
Why do you think this may be too early?


1a Robert b25th Feb 1796, , son of Thomas Edwards and Anne of Rhiwaedog.


2 Robert Edwards m Sarah Jones
(1822 Ruabon marriage. Aug 19 1822
Robert Edwards. of, R
Sarah Jones. of,R.            After Banns.
Witnesses. Richard Davies(X) & Eleanor Valendine(X))

Then these baptisms
Elizabeth,Born 10/03/1823,Baptised 11/04/1823.
Edward,Born 19/05/1825,Baptised 24/07/1825.
Robert,Born 03/09/1827,Baptised 07/10/1827.
Margaret,Born 07/05/1829,Baptised 20/09/1829.
Sarah,Born 21/03/1832,Baptised 05/04/1832.
Sarah?,Born 13/08/1834,Baptised 07/09/1834.

BUT - the parents of these children are possibly Robt Edwards and Sarah Lewis not Sarah Jones?
( "Whilst I can only think that the earliest Sarah must have died,the Parents are given for each one as (Robert Edwards of  Llanfor Parish) and Sarah(Maiden name Lewis,Widow).So if it is the correct couple it appears that it was Sarah's second Marriage,her first husband by the Surname of Griffiths died.")


3.Robert Edwards and Sarah Griffiths marrying at St Mary's Church, Ruabon in 1851
Ruabon marriage August 16 1851.
Robert Edwards. 23. Bach. Collier. Rhosllan... Father, Robert. Stone mason.
Sarah Griffiths(X) 21. Spinster. Rhosllan... Father, William. Collier.
Witnesses. John Taylor(X) & Ann Griffiths(X).

I have the children from this marriage.

The youngest of whom was the Margaret Ann Edwards m Moses Williams found by Paul - they are my gt grandparents

Am I still following this correctly? I'm wondering now if those baptisms are a different family - even tho the Robt Edwards 1827 is right time and place

I didn't mention Rhiwaedog for the marriage entry - no info just Thomas Edward and Ann Owen (in the patronymic form) and no record of any baptisms to the couple afterwards. 1796 is 24 years after the marriage, so possible but only just  Undecided

Hi

I've checked and the only marriage that i can find in Llanfor for a Thomas Edwards and an Ann(e) is 5th March 1772 to an Ann Owen. I think this is a little early and I can't find any other baptisms for the couple. I also had  a look at Llanycil and Llandrillio and will try  Llangower as well. I don't think have records for Llandderfel, which is to the east.

One of the main problems that we're facing  is the transition from the patronymic form which was still being used in that part of North Wales until  quite late on. I've tried to check on this but can't so far find any likely Thomas  Undecided

Oh yes- I'd looked at the date and seen Marriage but thought Birth.

24 years is unfeasible really.

Do you have any thoughts about those baptisms and who they may belong to?

Sarah?,Born 13/08/1834,Baptised 07/09/1834.

Well, I think this is your Robert. I said that they were non-conformist and that no baptisms would show - only marriages.

Hi,

I hope this works but I have attached copy of rates 1835 for Market St, Rhos.

I think this means that Robt(doctor - who must be the 1794 one) is father of Robert and Edward who is deceased.

There is also a Ned and Benjamin Edwards - same street but not necessarily related - I wondered if they might be brothers of Robert 1794.

Would a death cert for Edward Edwards shed any further light on his parentage?

Any chance of another cheeky lookup?

William - any chance of one?

The original information I have did say there was a William too and if this rates book is from 1835 and he wasn't born then  - there might be a fighting chance he was after 1837?

They are the children of Robert Edwards 1794 who is living in Rhos by then

If we assumed the baptisms above are the childern then Edward b 1825 is presumably the deceased one.
However no William in that list.

That said - the others are female and may have been more difficult to trace which is why they didnt appear in the info I had.

However I'm cautious about these records being the right ones still.

The family you refer to are all born Ruabon:

1861 - RG9/4283 Folio 3 Page 25

Edward, 49, carter
Mary, 46
Benjamin, 20, carpenter
Mary, 17, milliner (own account)

All born Ruabon - unless there is another one  which I can't find Undecided

At this time Robert, snr, was 65.

Do you think that this Edward's father was a Benjamin?
