Wonder if someone could help.  Margaret Jones, my G grandmother's birth certificate says she was born in 1849 at Forge Cych, Manordivy.  Doing some research I find that this is actually in Abercych. 

Her parents lived at Aberdwylan, Dolbryn hamlet, Cenarth and most of her siblings were born there.  I have wondered why Margaret was born at Forge Cych.

Looking on the 1851 census [the one nearest to Margaret's birth ] it looks as if  Forge Cych is a collection of small houses next to each other mainly inhabited by paupers and pensioners.  Hannah's maiden name was Evans  but I cannot find any link to Evans in the list of residents. 
The only other clue maybe that at Forge Cych Mill there is a David Evans as Miller. 

Now Hannah was born at Cenarth Mill in 1816 as her father, John was the Miller there. I can only trace two siblings for Hannah, John b. 1821 and Esther b. 1811.   
David  b. 1806 actually may be a bit old to be Hannah's brother and it looks as though he was born in Brongwyn ..... and the birth certificate does not say Forge Cych Mill just Forge Cych. 

Can anyone link Hannah to David Evans at the Mill?  Or any suggestions about Forge Cych.  Would really appreciate any help.   Thank you

Can anyone help please. 
We have details of Kurt Droz  [ c. 1895 ]and his wife Kate [or Katerina] Droz   [1906] leaving Los Angeles [ East San Pedro] on Dec 11 1932 on the Norwegian ship MS Talisman.
They went through the Panama Canal and onto to London arriving on Jan 16th 1933.  Then onto to Rotterdam arriving Jan 18th 1933 where they disembarked.   
They may have had daughter Katherine with them too. 

But I cannot find any out-going passenger lists from the US for that time and, strangely,  neither can I trace  the ship. 

Any ideas, advice, suggestions would be most welcome.
Many thanks

I am trying to help a friend find details of her mother's first marriage.  I have no experience of German records and wondered how we could go about it. 

The couple were Kurt Eitel F.M.Droz and Kate Kunst [born 1906].  They married in Wiesbaden on 3 March 1925.  The register number is 109. 

Any help /advice would be much appreciated. 

I believe that my gt gt grandfather Thomas Phillips was born in Pembrokeshire, maybe  in the parish of Penrith or Penrydd in 1858. 
I have his marriage certificate but father's name is blank so am assuming that Philips was his mothers maiden name.   At the time of marriage in 1876 he was a farm labourer in Llanfyhangel Pen Bedw.
But of course I realise that my assumption could be completely wrong!  But I have to start somewhere! 
So this is just a first shot to see if any of you wonderful folks can help.
many thanks

Does anyone have information on Katy Carson who lived in Sligo pre 1900.  She may have been the postmistress there. 
Before marriage she was Katy Jago.  She died in 1900
Be grateful for any help.
Thanks
