Hi Roger
Thank you for taking the time to highlight this
I will look into it and see what if anything ties in.

Appreciate the pointer
Kind Regards

Hi Iwan
Thank you so much for responding to my message.
We both seem to have bits of information about Foulkes and Llandrillo but also we each have gaps.
Regarding Robert J Foulkes and David Owen Foulkes - we appear to have different details which needs further discussion to establish we both have the same people (through dates etc.).
 
I would be very happy to exchange more details with you to see if we can tie things together - I am guessing that, with Llandrillo being a fairly small village, the two name links must be good but the details are not matching well.

I have attached a 1911 census page for Robert Jones Foulkes showing where my information came from. My suspicions are that we have the same family but there may be another Robert Jones Foulkes in another leg of the family tree that I do not have.

It might be easier to communicate by email, if you are OK with that, and once we have ironed out the connections we can post an accurate review of what we find back on this site.

My email address is roy.stobbart@gmail.com

Out of interest - do you have an account with ANCESTRY as well? I maintain my family history tree on there as it has been on there since mid 1990's and it is too much hassle to move.

If we can find the exact connection then we do have some details of our Foulkes family still living in Wales. 

Very much look forward to working with you on this.

Kind Regards

Roy

Hi - I have Foulkes and Jones connections to Llandrillo in my wife's family tree. My details are still a bit sketchy because, like you, I am struggling to find records.

Robert J Foulkes was born 1862 in Llandrillo.
Robert married Amy Owen who was born 1864 in Aberdovey.
They had a son David Owen Foulkes, birth record says 1893 in Newport.
David married Annie Jones - born 1896, no record about where.

Robert had siblings:
Elizabeth - born 1857 in Llanfor
Anne - born 1864 in Llandrillo
Jane - born 1867 in Llandrillo
Edward - born 1870 in Llandrillo

I appreciate this does not pin down exactly what you were looking for but the additional names at least identify a Foulkes link with Llandrillo

Hope it helps
