Title: William George Williams
Post by: Cynfelin on Wednesday 11 January 17 18:27 GMT (UK)
William George Williams was born in 1902 in the Bridgend area. His parents were Thomas Henry Williams and his mother may have been Mary Catherine Williams nee Bowen.1911 census gives their address as 95 Margam Street Cymer near Port Talbot. Can anyone help me please. I've not been able to do any progress to trace this line of my family tree.

Thank you. Help greatly appreciated. I think the family moved to Vancouver, Canada at some point.
