Denbighshire Lookup Requests / The COLLIERS of Denbyshire
« on: Sunday 03 June 07 14:55 BST (UK)  »
Does anyone have a copy of the above book.   There is some information in this book about John Evans (Miner from the Pentrefron Pit) with extra details about his family that I would like more info on.

Any help much appreciated.

Denbighshire Lookup Requests / John Evans - PentreFron Pit Coedpoeth
« on: Saturday 02 June 07 11:53 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to trace the children born to John and Elizabeth Evans.

John Evans was the miner rescued from the Pentre Fram Pit in Coedpoeth in 1819 and he had survived underground for 13 days!  It is a well documented story and a story that has been passed down the generations of my family.  My Mother was told that John Evans was her Great Great Grandfather. 

To date I have traced our family tree back to Mary Jane Evans born in 1844.  I was led to believe that Mary Jane was the daughter of John and Elizabeth but on the 1851 Census whilst she is listed as living with John and Elizabeth her relationship is stated as Niece.

I am hopeful that someone out there will be able to provide me with some  more information
