Breconshire Lookup Requests / Elizabeth Watkins Merthyr Cynog
« on: Friday 03 June 11 23:29 BST (UK)  »
Hi
I am looking for some help in finding the family of Elizabeth Watkins. She married William Jones at Merthyr Cynog 13 December 1811. The marriage was by Banns and she was recorded as 'spinster of Merthyr Cynog'.  She died in 1825 at Nantymynach, Gwenddwr and there is a memorial stone at Crickadarn recording this. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Wiltshire / Laywick in Wiltshire
« on: Thursday 09 September 10 00:47 BST (UK)  »
Hi
Has anyone heard of a place called Laywick or Legwick in Wiltshire. The 1891 census place of birth for my G Grandfather has been transcribed as Legwick, Wiltshire but I think it looks more like Laywick and I haven't been able to find any information for either. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Breconshire / Samuel Evans Llandefalle Brick Wall
« on: Thursday 08 January 09 17:00 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking for some help with the Evans family from Llandefalle. My GGG Grandfather was Samuel Evans born about 1790, died 19 Sep 1850. He is buried at Maesyberllan Chapel but I have been unable to find any birth details other than on 1841 census. I have obtained a copy of a will of a Samuel Evans farmer from Llandefalle who died c1831. The executor is his eldest son Morgan and the will gives other sons as Samuel, Rees & John. Morgan Evans was born about 1784 and died 21 Mar 1855. He is also buried at Maesyberllan Chapel. The family are Baptists and I have been unable to find any birth records pre 1837. Can anyone help find the final resting place of Samuel who died c1831. Fortunately it doesn't appear to be a very common name but hopefully this will give me his birth year or possibly his wife's name. Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
