I have posted this reply here as the data and speculation
seem more relevant than under the “Lledrod” post where
some relationships were originally queried.
https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=708963.msg6647094#msg6647094Birth years have been calculated from the MIs at Lledrod
(copyright Cardiganshire FHS,2011),together with abode,
grave sequence and incidental information.
Elizabeth Richards 1745-1830 Tynllan
Her will refers to her daughter,who,I think is
Sarah Evans 1784-1839,and the wife of
Evan Evans 1770-1847 who is at Tynllan in 1841
together with their son John.
(I cannot find this marriage to give a maiden name,
but,presumably circa 1810,with children,as follows
William(1811),John(1815),Mary(1817) all on FreeReg
The Ceredigion Archives in relation to Tynllan,reference
a will of 1836 for William,the dates and family members
coinciding with William above.I CANNOT FIND THIS WILL.
There is a will separately for
William Evans 1755-1832 Llechwedd,Llangwyryfon
The relationship,if any,between Evan and William
(and possibly Jenkin Evans,1765-1833,PwllPridd)
could be key,*particularly as the will of this William Evans
is originally written in the name of William Richards with all
the beneficiaries referred to as Richards,but in the initial recital
Richards has been scored through and Evans substituted.*
Further,there are graves for sons of William and Mary:-
Thomas Evans 1795-1827
John Evans 1789-1830
Both MIs refer to them also as Thomas and John Richard
The will nominates “unsettled” family,Daniel,grandson John
(son of the late John,above),and William’s son and
executor David Richard(s),who presumably is resident at
Llechwedd in 1841,with his wife Mary,born circa 1805,
(marriage 1832,Lledrod,David Richard to Mary Morgan)
This David and Mary adopt Jane Morgans,daughter of Morgan
1800-1867 and Elizabeth Morgans of Llwyn(merchgwilym)
Speculation on the family of Mary Morgan,yields the following
possibilities:-
Daughter of David Morgans 1781-1854 of Ffosgoy
Daughter of Harri Morgans 1745-1837 Spite(and “late of Dolfor”)
husband to Mary Morgans 1779-1848
(given the age gap to Harri’s wife,he may have been married
before and David of Ffosgoy be his son,and Mary wife of David
Richard(s),his granddaughter)
Enough for now.
