Hi All
Need fresh eyes on this one!...I have Eva Bella Davies b.1896 in Ffrith,Flintshire living with parents Richard & Louisa with siblings in Tryddyn in 1901....
This is the only record I can find of her?..no BMD, no sight of her either on the 1911 census...
Any thoughts & help much appreciated!...it may be either obvious or an eternal mystery!!
Sarah :)
-
where is she in the birth order of kids?
How many years wed/ kids born/ died in the 1911?
-
Hi PaulineJ
On the 1911, Richard & Louisa have been married 30 yrs, 12 children, 3 of whom have died...birth years of the children (I know of!) range from 1884-1904.
Sarah :)
-
Have you followed up on any of Richard's children?
Regards
William Russell Jones.
-
Hello WRJ
I know what happened to 8 of them for sure, I expect "eva bella" may have been one who died but cannot see a birth for her at present
sarah :)
-
try for a death instead.
What would be the correct registration district?
-
I'm not seeing a death of an ,Eva and/or Eve Belle or Bella or even Arabella Davies!Mind you her birth doesn't show too readily either!
Regards
William Russell Jones.
-
again, what would be the correct registration district?
-
Hi,
Is this a possibility:-
Birth 1893 3q Holywell 11B 249
Arabella Davies
HTH,
Megran.

Well Pauline J,its not a straightforward place as far as a Registration District is concerned.Ffrith could be in Holywell or Wrexham District.The person who would be able to tell me is not available on a Tuesday!
Regards
William Russell Jones.

Hi all
You're right WRJ, it's a tricky geographical area regarding registration districts!...I've 3 family birth certs covering a wide time span reflecting the change over time in districts, all 3 born in nant-y-ffrith and all different!..holywell, hawarden & ruthin!

wendy

Found a marriage in gwersyllt holy Trinity for a Arabella Davies

Wendy
-
Ignore the Davies/Symcox marriage Wendy,its a different Arabella Davies who is in my Tree!
Regards
William Russell Jones.
-
Hi Wendy & WRJ
Now that would be a result WRJ!..... would have soon sorted the puzzle!!
sarah :)
-
As soon as I seen the marriage I knew I'd typed the details in my Tree!My Arabella being the daughter of a Watkin Davies.
Regards
William Russell Jones.

Hi, I believe Richard & Louisa are buried in Llanfynydd but no sign of Eva-Regards Tom
-
Hi Tom
Thanks for info re Richard & Louisa's burial place...can I ask where you found the info?... do we share ancestors?
Sarah :)
-
Hi, Sadly we do not share ancestors---A few years ago I was trying to find family graves in Llanfynydd and was given access to their records---I managed to note most if not all of the earliest burials and this has proved useful on a few occasions-will gladly look up any more if ever required Regards Tom
-
What about this one ?
North Wales Birth indexes for the years: 1896
DAVIES Isabella Mold Flintshire (Mold) MOLD/48/80
Free BMD has her as this.
Births Jun 1896
Davies Isabella Holywell 11b 219
But perhaps not , this may be her in 1901.
Isabella Davies aged 5
Father Robert Davies
Mother Harriet Davies
Born Leeswood, Flintshire, Wales
A tough one is this ::)
-
Hi Wilcoxon
I think that's the most probable one yet!..at least the cert will confirm parents....and her real name!
sarah :)
-
Hi,
As you have her father's name, you could telephone the Registrar in Mold to check if the correct Isabella.
HTH,
Megran.
-
Hi Sarah, Are you aware someone has Eva Bella Davies born Flintshire 1896 in their tree on Genes R. or maybe it is you ? If not maybe someone will contact her on your behalf hopefully-Tom
-
Hi Tom
Will check GR...not logged in for a long time....think it's me though!!...
If it's not too cheeky ;) I'd be interested to know if you've anymore details of Davies' burials at Llanfynydd...
Sarah :)
-
Hi, This is all the info. I have from the Burial Reg. and I can only suggest they are yours due to the almost perfect dob----DAVIES Louisa, Slambar(Shambar) Wen. Bur 16 11 1924 aged 62 Years
DAVIES Richard, 7 Cymau Rd. Ffrith Bur 23 12 1934 aged 77 years-Hope this helps---I do not think there is a headstone as I took pics of most of them and I do not have one for Richard & Louisa. ::) Tom
-
Hi Tom
Thank you very much!...they are indeed my Richard & Louisa.
Sarah :)
-
Hi Sarah, Please do you have exact dob & dod for Louisa & Richard as I would appreciate them to put in my database of Llanfynydd Burials---No worries if you prefer not to share or do not possess same.-Tom
-
Did you ever find her ?
-
Hi Wilcoxon
She's still giving me the run-around!...she's actually been on the "back-burner" while I've been chasing some of her siblings but you've reminded me!....I think my next step is to check out both of the 1896 Arabella Davies you & Wendy suggested....hopefully she'll appear one day!!
Sarah :)
-
Hi there, I was wondering if you knew anything about Samuel Davies, Eva Bellas brother. I believe he might be my great grandad, my grandmother being Dorothy Wright ( maiden name Davies)
Thanks, Helen
