Agnes was the adopted daughter of John Thomas (b. Llanfechell 1847) and Hannah Thomas (b. Caergeiliog, Bodedern 1848). Her age in 1901 and 1911 suggests Agnes was born about 1882-5, her place of birth is given as not known (N.K.) in 1901 and Valley, Llanynghenedl in 1911.

In the 1891 census (RG12/4679/125/5) Agnes Davies Thomas is described as the 'daur(adopted)' of John and Hannah Thomas who are living at Chapel House, Valley. Agnes's age and place of birth are both left blank, and apparently she speaks only English.

John Thomas married Hannah Thomas at St. David's Church, Liverpool on 27 July 1874, both are described as residents of Liverpool, and they were living in Everton, Liverpool for the 1881 census (RG11/3661/105/41).

In 1906 (O,N,D qtr) Agnes Davies Thomas married Owen Jones (St. Asaph 11b 579) and in 1911 they are living with daughter Hannah Elizabeth (and Agnes's widowed mother, Hannah) at Hen Gapel, Bryngwran, Valley. Owen is a cattle dealer, born about 1878 at Bryngwran.
Owen and Agnes had ten daughters born on Anglesey between Dec 1906 and March 1925 - one died in infancy:-

Hannah Elizabeth b. 9 Dec 1906, Holyhead
Agnes Hilda b. 18 Nov 1908, Llechylched; d. 7 Sep 1909
Jane b. 11 Apr 1911, Llechylched
Agnes Hilda b. 26 Jun 1913, Llechylched
Mair b. 20 May 1915, Llanfwrog
Gwyneth b. 13 Jan 1917, Llanfwrog
Olwen May b. 1 May 1918, Llanfwrog
Eluned Eunice b. 5 Mar 1921, Llanfwrog
Rona Gwendoline b. 1 Aug 1923, Llanfwrog
Henrietta Irene b. 26 Mar 1925, Llanfwrog

And then no trace. I cannot find a marriage record for any of the daughters, nor the death of any other daughter nor for Agnes and Owen.
Does anyone know what became of any member of this family?

Can anyone find the birth registration for Richard Thomas, father Griffith Thomas, mother Ellen Griffiths,  born about 1877 in Pennsylvania.
By February 1879 the family were back in Caernarvonshire, North Wales - Griffith Thomas died on 27th Feb 1879, Richard's brother William John Thomas was born 28th February - at Llandegai, Caernarvonshire.
Richard was living at Llanberis, Caernarvonshire with his mother's sister at the 1881 census, and his place of birth was recorded as Pennsylvania, USA.

I have also been unable to find the record for the marriage of Griffith Thomas and Ellen Griffith in the UK. It is possible that they married in the USA or in transit to the USA.

Any help in finding either of these records will be much appreciated. Thank you

Can anyone help by looking up John Jones and family, living at Rhostymawr, Llanfaethlu, in the 1841 census?

The 1851 census shows:-
John Jones Head 57 Farmer of 28acres
Cathrine Jones Wife 57
William Jones Son 20
Susanna Jones Dau 18

Other children living there in 1841 may be:
James b 1821; Margaret b 1822; Robert Evan b 1825 & Mary b 1835.

Much appreciated.

Looking for my GGmother Ann Evans  and GGfather Hugh Lewis - both born about 1840, and both died before 1871 - who were married and living in Llanberis in 1863.
Ann Evans was the daughter of Hannah Evans, Age53, and living in Ty'n - y - Ffynon, Nant Peris in the 1871 census.

Local help appreciated.
