In later censuses when she appears in Glamorgan she claims to have been born in about 1836/6 inCardigan, Cardigan and Cardigan NK.The latter is probably correct as she had by then twelve children and her mind on other things. She marries at the Tabernacle Chapel Cardiff in November 1857. Her father is William Jones husbandman. I've identified a likely candidate from Llandewi Brefi in the 1851 and 1841 Censuses but she is living with her maternal grandparents. Can anyone check their parish records of around there to see if there is any christening (probably chapel) for Winefred

Still getting nowehere with this lady. Anyone got any ideas?

I don't know if you're still looking for this person but she may be connected to my family. I've only just returned to my family history research due to sad family matters and have a lot of old research to go through. My great grandmother's mother was called Mary Jones and she came from the town of Cardigan. However, on one census she states that she comes from Stepside, Cardigan. I've managed to find out that there was a large house (maybe a farm?) and cottages called Stepside on the Gwbert Road not far from Cardigan town. Mary Jones was living and working in a small village just outside Cardiff when she met and married my great great grandfather. There is a possiblity that Winefred Jones was related to her and may have lived in the same area. If you are interested I will pass on further information.

Winefred Jones born Stepside 1836 was my 2x grandmother, married William Henry David 1857, I believe Mary Jones was her sister, and they both ended up in Leckwith, since Winefred was 1836 and I believe Mary was 1825, I wonder how many were in between ?
