Maria Thomas's Parents, Ferryside
« on: Tuesday 16 October 12 21:00 BST (UK) »
I have managed to trace Maria Thomas's birth certificate. On it I have her parents name which is Rachel (could also be Rachel Mary) Thomas... formerly Lewis and David Thomas. She was born in Bradley St. Ishmael. I cannot find her parents' wedding certificate or birth certificate. Any help would be brilliant as I'm completely stuck.

Also on the same family.. I found on the family's grave in Ferryside a person called John Thomas that died at 22 on the 18th October 1931, TyCanol, Ferryside. I've managed to trace his death certificate, in the hope that because he died young his death would have been registered by one of his parents. But it was registered by his uncle William. Is there a way to find out his parents and if his parents had more children? My hunch it would be the son of John Thomas but he died fairly young of TB. Any help again would be gratefully received, as I've hit a brick wall.

Thank very much!

found her on 1901 and 1911 census.. on the 1911 she's spelt Marias. But that could be an error.

Hello  :)

There's a Rachel Lewis age 19 in 1871 who looks a good match. She's a servant for Thomas Williams at Iscoed Farm, St Ishmael

Rachel Lewis Servant age 19 born Landeveilog (Llandefeilog)

RG10 Piece 5493 Folio 71 Page 8

I also found a marriage in 1886 at Carmarthen of David Thomas and Rachel Lewis, which may be worth checking but specify St Ishmael Parish when you order the certificate.

Kind regards
Morgan
