Great Auntie
« on: Tuesday 07 April 15 15:32 BST (UK) »
Hi all, after a long period of not looking at my family tree.
I am a bit lost with my grandaunt (my Grandfather's sister).

This is the information I already have:  In 1901 census,

John Davies would be the father, he was born in Black Parish, Pembs (42 in 1901)
Ann Davies (his wife) no idea of the maiden name! (45 in 1901)
David Hughes Davies - Son (12 in 1901) place of birth Llangeler. (My grandfather)
Margaret A Davies (Daughter) (7 in 1901) place of birth Llangeler.

I cannot find what's happened to Margaret after this census (nor the parents).  I would like to trace her as I would be interested to see if she stayed in the area. My father has never mentioned her name (he was aware that his father had a sister) but he never spoke about her or even knew her name.

Any light or information would be most gratefully received.
Many thanks
A confused user!!

Sorry - 1911 lookups are not allowed.  There is a very obvious entry for Margaret on the 1911 index but shown as living in Cardiganshire

Try John Davies from Black Parish, Pembrokeshire.

Just wondered if she subsequently died young, if your father never mentioned her or any cousins?

Have you looked to see if any of this family are in family trees on other sites, as it is very difficult to track such common names.
