Breconshire Lookup Requests / Elizabeth Watkins Merthyr Cynog
« on: Friday 03 June 11 23:29 BST (UK)  »
Hi
I am looking for some help in finding the family of Elizabeth Watkins. She married William Jones at Merthyr Cynog 13 December 1811. The marriage was by Banns and she was recorded as 'spinster of Merthyr Cynog'.  She died in 1825 at Nantymynach, Gwenddwr and there is a memorial stone at Crickadarn recording this. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Wiltshire / Re: Laywick in Wiltshire

Hi LC

Thank you so much...I do believe you may be right it could well be Laycock and as on earlier census he has given his birth place as Chippenham it would be in the right area.

Wiltshire / Laywick in Wiltshire
« on: Thursday 09 September 10 00:47 BST (UK)  »
Hi
Has anyone heard of a place called Laywick or Legwick in Wiltshire. The 1891 census place of birth for my G Grandfather has been transcribed as Legwick, Wiltshire but I think it looks more like Laywick and I haven't been able to find any information for either. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Hi
Thanks for thinking of me. I had already seen this one and ordered the MI's but sadly it is not one of mine. The rest of the Evans family are either buried at Maesyberllan, Talachddu or Hephzibah at Erwood and I think this one is probably at Maesyberllan but the stone was probably too far gone when the MI's were done and sadly I have not found a burial record either.

Hi Oliviv
Thank you so much I will put the extra info in my tree.  Oddly enough I was about to ask you if you had a David Thomas Bulcot/Bowcott in your tree. I think he died about 1780 as I spotted a will for him which says he was from Merthyr Cynog.
I have been a bit busy of late so haven't had chance to do any more on my research but will get around to it as soon as I can. I am hoping to have a trip down to Ebenezer Chapel in the next couple of weeks.

Hope you are enjoying the summer
best wishes

Hi Oliviv

Thank you for taking the time to look these up for me. I am wondering if maybe the Llandefailogfach Bowcotts are the descendants from the other Richard son of either William or John. I will fill in the info that you have given and then have another look through the list.
best wishes
