Anyone with access to memorial inscriptions for cemeteries in this area. Looking for the grave Of Mary Jones died May 23 1875 aged 37. Memorial inscription probably in Welsh and could contain the additional phrase "gwraig y Parch Francis Jones. The cemetery could also be Nonconformist possibly Calvanistic Methodist

Llanbeblig burials records (church) on-line provided zero matches

Montgomeryshire / Davies LLangadfan Indiana
« on: Monday 30 December 13 22:38 GMT (UK)  »
Trying to locate the family of Rees Davies who arrived New York 1.6.1844 after sailing on SS Atlantic. Passengers listed were Ries Davies 64, Ries 21 Gwen 44, Ann 18 Evan 16 David 15 John 13 Elizabeth 11 Mary 9 Susan (sinah) 7 Richard 6 Catherine 4 Sarah 2.

Been unable to locate family in US census

In 1841 the family were living at Llyfriniog but were originally from Blaencowney Llangadfan.

There is an interesting article on this family emigration in the Dolydd 2013 available electronically

The only other lead we have is a plaque undated on a chair presented to Bethania chapel that reads
Presented by in memory of his father J J Davis ( lost the e) Blaencowney W L Davis Indiana

Guessing that this was in the 1920's 1930's

Merionethshire / Thomas Brees and Elizabeth Brees Pennal
« on: Monday 09 December 13 19:28 GMT (UK)  »
Looking for place of burial for Thomas (born 1821) and Elizabeth (born c1825 died 9.8.1894 Abergafan Isa Pennal although this could be near Pantperthog. I have checked church registers for Pennal, Machynlleth, Llanwrin, Corris and Talyllyn to no avail. Evidence suggest that her parents and their son David are buried Llanwrin. Has anyone access to records for the other cemetery in Corris or any other  Nonconformist cemeteries in this area.
Thomas was alive in 1881
