Hi Leo,

Joseph is my Great Great Grandfather. What is your connection, please?



So sorry about that cochiaid I thought.

My father was Morgan, his father William Evans who was born in Lluestnewydd and in turn his grandfather was Joseph.  Joseph had several wives.  I think we are already in touch, but I suspect you have loads more info than me.  I would be pleased to hear from you so please feel free to email me privately.

thanks for that osprey.  i may order a certificate but it would be useful if I knew the name of the church and the date on which they married.  Of course it poses another question what happened to the wife and her children when William died only 5 years later, that's the trouble it always poses more questions!

Thanks for the replies.  I have found them on the 1911 census and they had been married for 3 years.

I have looked on the link that Morgan gave but it doesn't give Trealaw church or would it have gone under another name?  I don't know the area very well so am not sure of the closest church as the crow flies so to speak.  But if the second wife was of a particular church I assume they would have got married there.

Would I be able to apply for their marriage certificate with the information I have got?

I have no idea whether it would be a church or a chapel so I'm including both.

Thanks

Is this the place near Tonypandy?

I would say that  Penrhiwfer is nearer to Gilfach Goch that Tonypandy.

Thank you

What is most likely to be the church nearest to Penrihfwer?  It was a second marriage in 1906.  It appears the first wife died that year and he married again.  I do know that they used Trealaw cemetery for the burial of both the first wife and William when he died, but I am not sure if they would have gone there to get married.

The names were William  (James) Evans aged 61 and Bessie Sheppard (I think it was the name she would have married under as her children have that name) aged 45.

Thank you.

I am trying to trace an uncle of mine who died young.  His name was Garfield Evans.  I believe he was buried in Glynogowr churchyard.  My grandparents were buried there also and I believe he was in the same plot.  My grandparents names were Joseph Jones Evans b 1883 d 1938 & Mary Blodwyn nee Parry b 1886 d 1935 (all dates approx within a couple of years).  I think Garfield must have lived somewhere between 1902 & 1923.

I need to know this information now  for purposes other than FH and I'd be sooo grateful if someone could let me know who is interred in this plot.

If somebody lives close.  I could give them details of were the memorial stone is and a pic would be excellent.

Thanks for any help given

I have checked the freebmd and they are both listed with the same references so I am assume they are the correct couple.

I don't really want to buy the marriage certificate at present.  Will just have to put that one on the back burner for a while.

Thank you
