Hi Trish

That is the correct family They moved from Chapel Hill, Tintern after marrying  around about the 1790's to Chepstow then on to Newport. I found the census saying that Mary was born in county but cant find the Jacob family around in the area. So confused where to start looking for a church in Bristol.

Thanks for your help

Good evening all.

I have a marriage that I would like further details on if possible in bristol 1791, between my 5th g grandparents. George Gethin from Chapel Hill/Chepstow and a Mary Jacob. I would love to know if Mary was from Chepstow or from Bristol cant find any thing regarding Marys family. Would love some help on this or anything on the Gethin family and the riverboat operating between Chepstow/Chapel Hill and Bristol.

Hi Yes you are correct Duclie was my grand and my Grandfather was Myddyr - The person born in 1948 was my Mother Ann Saunders and died nearly 14 years ago.

Sorry this is why I am unable to ask anyone my mother didnt have siblings or myself.

Hi Carole
Thank you for taking an interest in this my grandfather died in 1979 - Merthyr Tydfil B80A 8603B he lived all his married Life in Deri, Bargoed and Married Dulcie Saunders of Deri ,Bargoed. I Know that Tom ? and Mair had one Daughter Annwen. I believe that they are burried in Rhymney Cemetry but I have visted there numerous times to look at the records, but only managed to find my great grand parents John and Emily Saunders. I have been to the old house to find that it has been knocked down and the old cafe is now a kebab house.

sorry I must get to bed earlier, My Grandfather - Myddyr was Mair's brother - Tom(?)  was Mair's Husband. My Grandfather died 1st followed I believe by Mair and Tom

Thank you for your help would love to have this information. There isn't anyone I can ask as sadly all my close family pass away when I was young. I know the daughters of Mair and Tom's christian name but I don't know if I am allowed to post this. (Hopefully she may still alive and my only relation I have.)

Best wishes and thank you

sorry late replying
The family where my grand parents family who I lived with and brought me up. My grandfather died when I was 8 so all i can remember is that Tom died and my grandfathers sister rather soon after my grandfather. My grand also died within a few years and thats where anything to do with the family died also. There was no documents of my grandfathers that I can remember relating to his family left behind . I do know that they had a daughter who would be 60 -65 whos name I do remember but moved away after completing university and married.

Thank you
