pylorus

The part of the stomach that connects to the duodenum (first part of the small intestine). The pylorus is a valve that opens and closes during digestion. This allows partly digested food and other stomach contents to pass from the stomach to the small intestine.

The word after Pylorus is Exhaustion

Thank you so much for this. It’s truly appreciated. Mx

Dear all,

Is anyone able to read the text attached and be able to tell me what the 'malignant disease' was please? I think it begins with a P?

Many thanks as always

On the 1851 Census Thomas Jones, age 19, quarryman, born Abergele, is with parents Evan and Elizabeth and brother John at "Tyn y Wall, village of Llandulas". About 10 households away are the Rectory and Bôd-hyfryd - which can be seen on this 1872 map

Thomas' marriage cert confirms father as Evan Jones, Rockman.

Just to say a huge thank you for the link to this lovely map! I'm referring to it quite a bit! A lovely map!

1891 Llysfaen. Conway.

Could this be David. Born Llanddulas.

David Jones30Head limestone quarrier.
Amelia Jones33Wife
Thomas Jones6Son
Catherine Jones4Daughter

No obvious marriage in the area and difficult to find a birth reg to find mmn.
Catherine baptised 1887 Llanddulas.

So many Jones 😉

You are right - so many Jones! I was hoping Amelia being a slightly more unusual name may have led me to a marriage cert but can’t find it on either Ancestry or FindMyPast!

It is indeed Louisa. They end up in Huddersfield, Louisa loses both daughters to Scarlet Fever and she dies from TB in 1890.

Other than Mary, I’m struggling to track any of the others as they grow up and marry etc!

They just all ‘disappear’ between 1881 - 1891!

To help eliminate one.
Emma Jones burial Llanddulas 24 July 1886 is the wife of a Robert Jones. She isn't quite the right age but was worth looking at.
Not much help really 😉

Eliminating one is a help - truly! Thank you!

Hello all,

I'm starting to build a picture of this side of the family. However, I'm trying to find out when Emma Jones (MMN Davies) may have died. In the 1881 Census she is at 5 Tyn y Wal, Llanddulas.with her husband Thomas and various children.

10 years later, I can't find her or any of the family on the 1891 Census. At 5 Tyn Y Wal a John Evans and family are living. Historically Thomas and Emma seem to stay between Tyn y Wal and 'The Square' in Llanddulas. The only 'event' I know of around that time was their daughter Louisa dying in Huddersfield in 1890. In fact I'm struggling trying to find any of the families marriages other than Louisa and Mary! It's Emma I'm focussed on at the moment though.

Any pointers /tips/ help are gratefully received.
Mx

Thank you so much everyone. This is far more information than I expected and opens up plenty of lines that have puzzled me for a long time! I shall sift through it all. What I have done today is found Mary's birth certificate on GRO which confirms her Father is Thomas, a 'Stone Quarry Labourer' and that she was born "in the village of Llanddulas" on 19 March 1858, Mother is Emma - MMN Davies.

Since then, I can see Mary's baptism which has Tyn Y Wal as place of birth. I can also potentially see a marriage record for Thomas and Emma in 1852. Both marriage and Mary's baptism at St Cynbryd, Llanddulas.

It's interesting, as I can only place Thomas in Liverpool around 1877, when Mary marries Griffith Owen in Liverpool. Thomas' address on the marriage certificate for his daughter says he is at 105 Gregson St. Using the electoral registers, at this address a William Evans was living there in 1871 but between 1874 - 1878 (over the time of the wedding) a Samuel Davies is listed as being there... I can't find the 1871 Census record.

Mary dies young from TB in 1887 in Liverpool.

I 'think' in 1871 I can see Thomas (46) and Emma (41) with children David, Evan and Jane at '7 Square, Llanddulas' (I think)

In 1881 I think they are at '5 Tyn Y Wal'  Thomas (50) Emma (51) with David, Evan and a  Louisa Earnshaw (27) married, born in Llanddluas but appears to be wih her children Amy (6) and Beatrice (11 months), now all living in Huddersfield. I thought Tyn Y Wal was one farmhouse, however, this Census has numbers next to it like it's a road which has me puzzled?

So I'm wondering if Mary was 'sent' to Liverpool young as she's not on the 1871 Census here? I can find, in Fletcher St Liverpool a Mary Jones (13) Lodger who is living with a Jane Jones (widow) 42 and a Dressmaker from Llangollen. This lists Mary as being born in Liverpool though that could be a mistake of course?

Thomas doesn't appear to have settled in Liverpool?

Much to ponder , review and cross reference with all your lovely help. I shall go through it all. Thank you so much. It's really appreciated.
