Hi Owen
Its a long story ...... I am related to the Jones line from Gwalchmai...... as well as griffiths etc. I did a DNA test and found matches but we have no definite links but I have added their informstion into my database through our common ancestor and this is how I have the Jones/Pritchard information. I am trying to find links and can only do that by adding any information I get into the database. I do have Rowlands in my lines as well ... Elizabeth Rowlands b 1879 Gwalchmai was my 3rd cousin 2x removed....
Her father was Thomas Rowlands b 1857 Gwalchmai s/o Robert Rowlands 1818 Gwalchmai and Elizabeth Williams 1818.....Her mother was Ann Rowlands b 1856 Gwalchmai d/o William Rowlands b 1832 Gwalchmai and Ann Rowlands b 1833 Frondeg.
Robert 1818 was the s/o Robert Rowlands b 1796 Newborough and Elin Jones b 1795 Gwalchmai.
William 1832 was the s/o Robert Rowlands 1796 Newborough and Elin Jones as well so Robert and Ann were 1st cousins.
Elin Jones was the daughter of my 4x Great Grandfather Hugh Jones b 1770 Gwalchmai
Hope that makes sense
