Gwalia House, Harlech
« on: Monday 24 July 17 16:16 BST (UK) »
Hi I've tried looking for this strand of the family before but with no luck. My great grandmother Jennett Williams was born in 1864 in Llandanwg / Harlech. She had siblings called Robert Williams 1861, Samuel Williams 1867, Margaret A Williams 1869, Kate S Williams 1872 and Griffith Williams 1874. Their parents were Griffith and Catherine Williams born 1836.
Samuel Williams lived at Gwalia House in Harlech but went to live to the Ffestiniog area before he died. His brother Griffith Jones Williams died in Harlech October 1950 and was a builder.
Samuel had 3 children Griffith born 1893, Ann Jane Williams 1901 and Catherine Williams 1906.His brother Griffith also had 3 children Trevor Wynne Williams 1906, Owen Watkin Williams 1908 and Emrys Griffith Williams 1910.
If anyone knows anything about the family I would be very grateful.

Are you looking to go back in time from parents Griffith & Catherine to find their parents, or forward to find information on Samuel & Griffiths other siblings?
