Happy New Year Everyone
I am trying to find out about the early life of my Great Grandmother - Mary Evans.
She was born in 1835-6 and her Father was Thomas Evans and a Farmer I don't know
her Mothers name.
When she married my Great Grandfather ( Daniel Elias ) on the 15th November 1864 she was 29
and living in Rhymney. She lived all her married life in Rhymney. Mostly on a farm named Penbryn-
oer ( now a wind farm!) She died 31st July 1888 in Tai Elias. Rhymney at the age of 52.
On the 1871 census she had her age as 35, and 1881 census had her as 45. Both of these
censuses had her as being born in Breconshire. She is buried , with her husband, in Soar-y-
Graig churchyard.
If anyone can help me find out more abouther or point me in the right direction.
Thank you for taking the time to look at this and I wish you a happy and healthy New Year
