Title: Richard and Hesperia Hillman
Post by: tigtig on Monday 09 April 12 15:17 BST (UK)

Seeking information please on this couple. I have (H)esperia(h) Mary Lanyon born 1877 who married Richard John Hillman (born 1875) in 1898. She lived at 70 High St, Mountain Ash in 1881 and Glyn Gwyn St, Mountain Ash in 1891.There is a probable death for her in 1958 in Chippenham. I don't have any of the relevant certificates - just from Free BMD. She was my grandfather's sister.
Many thanks
Tig

Thanks very much. It's interesting that his mother was from Cornwall, as that was where the Lanyon family came from.
