Hi Suz

Have you had any further success in following up on Margaret Jones? I'd appreciate hearing from you. I'll be visiting the UK in September, and would also appreciate any advice on following up on this matter.
Regards

I am so impressed - thank you so much, you've already told me things I didn't know. Amelia was Ernest's sister - Ernest was born in 1867, and Amelia in 1860. I don't know of any Metcalfe link, but during my father's (Herbert) early years in South Lambeth the family seemed to always have boarders.

Hi Suz
This was my first posting on Rootschat, and I'm thrilled by your fast response. I don't have any more information about her, and have been overwhelmed by the number of Margaret Jones' in Brecon, as you probably already know. Her marriage witnesses were William Thomas Darler and Amy Parry. I am a beginner in family history, and have no idea how she met my grandfather, or when she went to London.
Thank you

I would love to receive any information about my paternal grandmother, Margaret Jones, born in Brecon in 1868. Her father was David Jones, listed on her marriage certificate of 22 April 1889 as 'Farmer, deceased'. She married Ernest Lindsay Wright in Stoke Newington, London, and had two sons, Alfred Edgar (1894) and Herbert Arthur (1897). She died in South Lambeth, London on 17 March 1943.
