Hi Gadget

It's very possible, Edward and Sarah are I believe the parents of Samuel Jones, Samuel was born in Chirk, Vron Vriara, in about 1845, he married Elizabeth Phillips in 1873.

Samuel is my gt gt grandfather. I've not explored the siblings of Samuel as yet.

I think I'm getting there- Clara Jones was the sister who informally adopted William's son born in 1924 so believe I'm on the right track.

I found an obituary with all the family names that fit, including William's second wife which started me off on the journey.

Thanks for all the input

William Herbert Jones born November 1895, taken from 1939 register

Census record in 1911- 30 Nelson Street, Wrexham with parents Samuel and Elizabeth (nee Phillips).

The birth certificate of the son born in 1924 has the same address, 30 Nelson Street.

If it helps I believe the father of William Herbert Jones is a Samuel Jones.

Thanks

Thanks Gadget,

Its frustrating as most of my ancestors seem to be married in St James, Rhosddu.

I think I will need a certificate - will post as soon as its received.

I found both the earlier children born in the marriage, (Robert & May) both died shortly after birth, Robert being the name of the first born child does lead me to the 1901 census posted by Cas (stallc)

Thanks

Thanks to all

I'm not sure if Nancy had been married before her marriage to William H Jones in 1919, it's possible.

I have the birth record in 1924 of the child born in the marriage, the child survived but Nancy died in childbirth, the birth certificate confirms mother deceased. I wasn't aware of the two other children born in 1919 and 1920, thank you for the information. I'm not sure what happened to both children,... another avenue to research, its possible both didn't survive. William re-married and having found him in the 1939 register there are no children with him other than with his new wife.

The person born in 1924 was informally adopted by his Aunt and her husband, he is with the family on the 1939 register.

I had no idea Nancy had alternative names, makes researching confusing but the record found by Cas(stallc) is a good lead, although, am thinking a marriage certificate may be the only option if there are no records online.

Thanks so much for looking and a Happy Easter!
