Family History Beginners Board / Re: Williams family in tonyrefail
« on: Thursday 25 February 21 11:14 GMT (UK) »
Hi all, I’m not getting very far with my great grandfather. I have the date of birth is 2/7/1896. According to his marriage certificate he married Nellie James in 1918 and his father is written down as David Williams. I would like to order a birth certificate however when searching the gov website, I have 4 entries for the same name- I do not know the name of the mother which is causing an issue. It could be Owens, James, Davies or Wood. Can anyone help me find out the mothers name?? Thanks 😊

Bit of extra information on the certificate is that William Henry Williams profession state: Driver REA 279509 coelier - excuse the spellings only the handwriting isn’t the easiest to make out. REA could be R ? A the middle letter is a little difficult to make out.

Ref. Jun 1886 Pontypridd 11a/553.
These are the 9 children she says she had in 1911.
1887/William John
1888/Violet Hope
1889/Annie
1890/Vernon Stanley
1893/Esther
1895/William
1896/Thomas
1898/Arthur
1901/Mary Emma
1911 shows Maggie Williams dau. b. 1896 but I can't see a birth registered for her.
The mother says she had 9 & 1 died but this one makes 10.
1911:
Annie Williams 22
John Williams 19
Esther Williams 17
William Williams 16
Thomas Williams14
Arthur Williams 12
Emma Williams 9
Maggie Williams 5
This is amazing thank you 😊

Are there any clues in the witnesses names.
Unfortunately not- they are both for the other side James!
