Mary Emma Williams, Born 18th December 1848, Llanedy, Carmarthenshire.
She Married Louis William Howell on the 27th June 1878 in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA.
She Died on the 1st October 1926 in Roosevelt, Duchesne, Utah, USA.
I'm trying to find her with her Parents on the 1851 Census, and also, (if possible) on Passenger Lists from Wales to the USA.
Cheers, Romilly.

Hello Romilly.
I found a Mary Williams 1851 census born 1849 Lanedy (misspelt by familysearch.org ) parents william and Hannah , dates are not always accurate .. the place is usually spelt LLanedi.
Williams mother is Lettysia a widow living with them. not sure if your Mary.. still trawling for you.. goodluck..just found a mary williams 1861 llandey census.. and 1871 residing in scotland.

The 1851 in Llanedy, that Mary became a school mistress and is still there in 1881.
I note trees on Ancestry record her parents as Evan & Sarah, there are two 1851 censuses for Evan & Sarah with a daughter Mary but neither born in Llanedy?

Many thanks all for looking, - much appreciated.
ciderdrinker, - yes, that's definately her then. And so Parents, Evan and Sarah.
I have an Ancestry DNA Match to several of her descendants, and so I'm guessing that somewhere down the line, - she must have been related to my 3 x Great Grandmother Anne Williams. (Baptized 3/10/1811, Bethel Chapel, Calvinistic Methodist, Llangyfelach, Swansea. Parents William Williams and Sarah Walter. Anne Williams Married Evan Rees in Llangyfelach in 1830 and Died on the 3/10/1853 in Swansea).
I can't see Mary Emma Williams on any Passenger Lists though?

Jui, - I tried that Link on Google, but it just takes me to a Contact Family Search in Salt Lake City prompt.
I tried signing into Family Search and searching for Mary Emma under Williams and then Howell, - but don't seem to be getting anywhere...:-(
Don't know what I'm doing wrong?
