Hello
Can anyone help with yet another mystery on my tree.
My Great grandfather Job Herbert Harris was born in Llanrhystyd Cardiganshire in 1854, his father is unknown but his mother was Mary Herbert born in 1826 in Llansaintffraed Cardiganshire.
He had a brother named William who was born in 1859 in Llansaintffraed Cardiganshire, his father was also unknown. I think although cannot confirm that there may have been a sister named Mary Anne born in 1849 in Llansaintffraed Cardiganshire.
When his mother died in 1865 in Llanon I lost track of the 2 boys but I think I did discover Job working in Foreshaw Heath in Solihull Warwickshire in 1871 by 1876 he married Anne Adams in Birmingham where they settle and raise a large family.
He worked as a Gold and Silver Wire Drawer which was the occupation of Anne's father, so this may be how Job and Anne met.
When Job married he was using the name Job Herbert Harris but it is a mystery why he called himself this.
On the marriage certificate it states that Job's father was Job Harris deceased.
Can anyone help with this , The Herbert family were farmers and David Herbert, Job's Grandad raised a large family he married Mary Jones and then Hannah Davies.
The family farm in Llansaintffraed was Tryal Bach Farm.
