RICHARDS in Merthyr
« on: Wednesday 09 June 04 19:13 BST (UK) »
I'm looking for gg grandma.

On 1901 census she is age 43 (born abt 1858) in Glamorgan Merthyr and her name is shown as Jane, by this time she was living in Fulham London married to Joseph Bartlett Perry.

Her sons birth cert says mothers name Susannah Jane Perry nee Richards.

I'm assuming she prefers to go by Jane unless Jane was a second marriage, I hope not cos I can't find the first one!

I can't find her on the 1881 census either!

Any time spent looking for her and any info will be much appreciated

Thanks

I have searched for Susannah Richards in the 1861 Glamorganshire Census and there were no results, however 2 matches to Jane Richards c 1858(+&-2yrs)

Perhaps she was known as Jane by her parents also?

Jen

Thanks everso much.

Wonder why I didnt find them on 1881, don't know, maybe it was getting late.  This is them cos 59 Dieppe St is right address.

Will look into this a bit more when kids in bed and I can concentrate a bit better

Thanks again
