Thank you! The Owens mother’s maiden name suggestion is interesting, as I have the probable baptism for son Owen, as follows

Name   Owen Owens Hughes
Gender   Male
Baptism Date   17 Apr 1836
Baptism Place   Llanllyfni,Caernarvon,Wales
Father   Owen Hughes
Mother   Margaret
FHL Film Number   104576

My battery is running low tonight, as is my concentration. I will take another good look tomorrow.

Thank you for the tips!

Hello!

Probably staring at me in plain sight, but I can’t find this family in 1861 census. I’ve got father Owen as a widower, with John and Ellin in 1871 in Mill Street, Llanllechid. I believe I also have son Owen’s burial record, address Mill Street, Llanllechid in 1862. But can’t find Owen Hughes 1811 anywhere in 1861 census. 

1851 Llanllechid
Owen Hughes 39 head Quarryman b Llandwrog
Margaret Hughes 39 wife b Llanllyfni
Owen son 14
Margaret dau 13
William son 12
Ellin dau 11
Catherine dau 10
John son 8
Mary dau 4

If anyone can access parish records for possible marriage of Owen and Margaret that would be a wonderful bonus! Their oldest children were born in Llanllyfni in c1836-39.

Thank you for any help. 😊

Thanks, I just wanted to check it was ok to ask for this type of info first.

It was 23 Newry Street, Holyhead. My grandmother was born and lived in Birkenhead then Liverpool, but her parents were born in Holyhead originally and she married in the Tabor Chapel, Valley, so I assume the occupants would have been family, details of which would help my research!  The marriage was 1925.

Thank you.

I was just looking at 1861 census for some relatives who lived at 15 Newry Street. 

Happened to notice that 19 Newry Street was described as what looks like ‘Lock Up House’. Occupants are 2 ladies described in the census as ‘prostitutes’. 

Your Police Inspector ancestor Richard Ellis and his family are also listed at 19 Newry Street over the page, so you’d need to scroll back to see the other occupants.
