Hi Bev,
Thank you for replying. I am trying to find out about Thomas' (my g.g. grandfathers) brothers and sisters. I have only their names and years of death. I would like to know if they married, if so to whom, when and where they died. I know that Thomas and his wife are buried in Cwm Chapel, Bonymaen. Also I believe that there is another family grave there but I don't know whose. The infromation I have is:
Thomas b. 1880
George b. 1881
Catherine b 1884
John b.1886
Ann b. 1888
James E b. 1891
Robert b. 1893
Rachel b. 1895
Lizzie b. 1899

Glamorganshire / Davies family Bonymaen Swansea

Hi
Being a bit hopeful here, but really having difficultly with the ever so common Davies surname! Is there anyone on here who happens to be searching for Davies' from the Bonymaen/Pentrechwyth area of Swansea? Particularly linked to James Edward Davies (born 1857) and his wife Elizabeth (Rees) born 1862 both in Llansamlet.
I have a list of their children but only information on their eldest Thomas who was my g.g.grandfather. Can't see how I am going to find out about his brothers and sisters with there being so many Davies in Swansea to search though!
Any advice greatly appreciated!

Glamorganshire / Re: 1911 census - Leswisse family
« on: Saturday 29 August 09 17:42 BST (UK) »
Hi
What a coincidence - haven't had chance to work on my family history since I last posted until last night. That is when I found out about margarets marriage to your Alfred. It was her second marriage. Margaret was a Leswisse by marriage - did you know this? Her first husband was David James Leswisse and I have her as Margaret Mathilda Thomas prior to her marriage to David. It appears she had one child with David - Henry Leswisse born June 1902. In the 1911 census he is down as a Hastings so I guess she changed his name on her marriage to Alfred.
Hope this is of some help and would love to hear back from you.
Nicola.

Thank you - found her! Knew she was a servant. Thought I had tried all the surname spelling variations, but obviously not! Still can't find the other brothers and sisters though, so any further suggestions from anyone would be much appreciated!!

Glamorganshire / 1911 census - Leswisse family
« on: Tuesday 28 July 09 20:13 BST (UK) »
Hi
I have encountered a problem looking for my Leswisse ancesters from Swansea in the 1911 census. There were quite a few of them, but can only find one of the sons listed. My g. grandmother, Hannah Leswisse and her sisters and other brothers seem to have disappeared.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Regards,
Nicola

Wiltshire Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Swindon - Newport Street Coffee Palace
« on: Saturday 04 October 08 20:19 BST (UK) »
Thank you for the reply. It was very interesting. It still remains a mystery as to why Albert and just two daughters were there but maybe it is one that I can never solve!
Thanks again, I know have a better understanding of what a coffee palace would have been.
Kind regards,
Nicola
