Thanks for your message. I do not know of any existing relatives. I believe Tegwyn aka Tecwyn had a brother David, two sisters Mary and Annie- I think I'm correct about this last name. I'm almost sure that there was an older brother but have no details. Tecwyn and his family lived next door to my grandparents here in Denbigh, North Wales. This would have been during the years 1937 till about late
early 1950's. If you are interested I can send you a photo of Tecwyn in uniform.

Zechariah BELLIS's parents were Edward BELLIS & Anne (nee HARRISON) ( Mold Parish Register)

According to the 1861 census when a Mary BELLIS was staying with her grandmother- her name was Elizabeth then a widow. Back in 1841 her husband was an Edward but not the above Edward.
So there must be another Mary BELLIS somewhere

Listed on the 1841 census for Zechariah & Eleanor's family there is an Edward, a pauper aged 75.
Zechariah was aged about 35- in 1851 he was 49. Is the Edward his father- possible I suppose

Thanks again for your help

Thanks to both "millipede" and "chempat" I am grateful for your replies. I can't recall how I read or was told that there was a problem with the 1861 census for that area of Flintshire. That was why I drew a blank with Zechariah's wife Eleanor. On further checks of my records I do have Isaac & Edward BELLIS lodging in Minera; also Hannah as a Dairymaid- I need to try and see where she lived then. Mary BELLIS I have not found. Eleanor BELLIS the other sibling was also a servant in Leeswood.
I will now look up the death record of their mother Eleanor in 1865

Flintshire / What happened to Eleanor Bellis b.about 1810
« on: Friday 23 January 15 14:33 GMT (UK)  »
Eleanor Bellis(nee Davies) married Zechariah Bellis in Mold in 1832. She is in all census records from 1841 to 1851. Her husband died in 1859. I was told that parts of the 1861 census for Mold are missing. Can anyone help me find her for that year or what may have happened to her subsequentlyl please?

Flintshire Lookup Requests / 1871 census for Flintshire Wales
« on: Friday 20 June 14 15:16 BST (UK)  »
 :)Failed to find my great grandparents on the 1871 census on Findmypast. Were there any records lost or missing for some parts of Flintshire? In 1881 they were living in Arddynwent which corresponds with the present day area of Nerquis near Mold. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks to all those who have responded to my request. I have all the relevant information about my Tegwyn Roberts. I got the birth dates from Free BMD -1st quarter 1924 but this does not give me the exact date. All I'm trying to do is to see if any surviving relatives are around. Tegwyn himself would be 90 this year if he was still alive. The crash took place over Holland 23/24 September 1944. The plane still had some unexploded ammunition on board when it was shot down so there was precious little human remains - although some Dutchmen who unearthed the aircraft found some human remains. They are putting together and exhibition in Holland later this year. They have managed to contact surviving relatives of five of the crew but so far have failed with remaining two including Tegwyn's.
