Carmarthenshire / Evans Llangunnor

Looking for anything on REES EVANS who married Elizabeth Edmund in 1791 in Llangunnor. I know they had a son Daniel Evans born 1804 Llangunnor, died 1860. Daniel married Rachel Davies (1806-1874) Llangunnor.

Thanks Sandra. I decided to go to the library tomorrow to look him up there as they have access to the newspaper archive and I can print anything out that I want. You have been a fantastic help. Thankyou.

Sandra thankyou so much. Its a start. I never realised he had just used the name Walter Dunlo. I see one of his sons Harold Dunlo is also mentioned. I really appreciate this.

Hi, thanks. That isn't the Walter Allen though. My Walter used his full name. Probably cos he thought it would stand out.

Hi can anyone tell me how to find out about a relative that was on the stage and was said to play in every theatre in Britain? His name was Walter George Dunlo Allen and he was part of the Kracy Komics & Crazy Gang which included Charlie Chaplin and Stan Laurel. He was born in London (Notting Hill) in 1878 and spent his life in theatres as a producer/actor/director and also wrote pantomimes. He had a son born 1913 Walter Thomas Dunlo Allen who appeared with Todd Slaughter in the play Sweeney Todd. Walter senior married my aunt Frederika Evans in 1946 after his first wife died. Freda was only 21, he was 68. I dont know how to access anything about the theatres. I know Walter senior played the lead role in Harlequin at the Theatre Royal in Drury Lane London in the 30's and 40's. can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thankyou. Yes I know that. I was trying to find out if they were there in 1921 but obviously they were.

Blimey.  :D  Thankyou so much for that. I am thinking now that she must have stayed in Mill Street. Thats where she was in 1911 although it looks like the family moved from one house to another in that street!!

Carmarthenshire / Elizabeth Williams b. 1868 Llanelli.

Elizabeth Williams was a widow living at 18 Mill Street Carmarthen in 1911. She had her son Samuel B. 1900 living with her. I cannot find her on 1921 census. She may have moved again or remarried though this is unlikely. Has anyone got her on their tree? Her husband John was killed in an accident in 1900. He was 32 years old. Her other grown up children are Evan Llewellyn Evans b. 1892, Esther Jane b. 1894. Evan married Florence Evans 1915 (died 1928) and Esther married David Samuel Rees in 1913. (she died 1974)
