Evans family:Llanrhystyd:Look up
« on: Monday 07 February 11 14:32 GMT (UK) »
 Hi I was wondering whether any one could help me find out some facts about this family.
They are mentioned on the 1861 census as living in  55 Maesnewydd:
John Evans 38 1823 Shoemaker Llanbadarn Fawr
Elizabeth Evans 37 1824 Tregaron
Richard son 9 1852 Llanbadarn fawr
*Mary daughter  7 1854 LLanilar
Elizabeth 4 1857 Llanrhystyd.
I would be very interested whether any one could help me trace a  date for their marriage, either of their parents names or their deaths. I think I have found a death for John in the MI in llanbadarn fawr as 21st Jan1892 but cannot trace Elizabeth's death.
Also I have traced I think their son Richard if my Welsh is correct?
Richard Evans, Pwllhobi yn y plwyf hwn, yr hwn a fu farw Ionawr 26ain1888, yn 37 mlwydd oed. Canys efe a edwyn ein defnydd ni gofia mai llwch ydym. Ni ddaw nghyfeillion mw ya'u hedd i'm hebrwng ond hyd lan y bedd; try pawb eu cefnau dyma'r dydd gadawant fi yn fy ngwely pridd. Hefyd am ei anwyl briod Elizabeth Evans, yr hon a fu farw Rhagfyr 28ain 1928, yn 81 mlwydd ood. Yr Arglwydd yw fy mugail, ni bydd eisieu arnaf.
Any help on tracing details about this family  would be most appreciated.
thanks

don't know if you've got any further with this query. This looks like a possible from 1851

Tafarntrap/trip(?), Parcel Canol, Llanbadarn Fawr  HO107/2486 folio 302 pg 4
John Evans head mar 27 shoemaker master employing 1 apprentice b. Llanbadarnfawr
Elizabeth wife 26 b. Llangeitho
Richard father widower 73 ag lab b. Lledrod

death reg for Elizabeth
Elizabeth Evans 81 dec qtr 1928 Aberystwyth vol 11b pg 66

possible baptism for John in IGI extracted batch C098701 for Llanbadarn Fawr
John Evans bp 21/1/1823 son of Richard & Mary

Finding the marriage without knowing Elizabeth's maiden name is rather trickier. More than one possible birth reg for Richard showing as 9 in 1861. Perhaps ask the registrars to check for you rather than use the GRO.
