Wales / Re: Obituary Translation Welsh to English please......
« on: Wednesday 21 March 18 15:07 GMT (UK)  »
First part,( I am not a linguist but Welsh is my first language.)
The community of Plasmarl and Glynmawr were very surprised by the unexpected news of the death of the dear man, John Rees, Plasmarl.  He had not been in good health for a while but had spent all of the last Sabbath of his life in the chapel and he was preparing for the work on the morning of his death.  He was born in the  Clydach area and his family there were very useful with the cause. The children also had the privilege of serving God their Father.  Proof oif that is that Rees spent his life in the service of religion and was for many years a respected deacon.  He was a deacon since the beginning of the caue in Plasmarl and previous to that at Siloh, Glandwr.  He had held the the position of the eldest deacon at Hermon for a while.  His brother, Mr Benjamin Rees, Ki ng's Cross, London - the only brother now alive- is as everyone knows a very prominent and useful with the cause there

 Thank you for that extra piece of information.
I am trying to help my nephew discover his father's family and it is such information that brings the story to life.

That is the family, I am following Jane Ellen  I just would like to know if her brother was Andrew or Anthony
Have tried 1888+/- 2 yrs for the marriage.
Having another idea, Could Elizabeth have come back to Wales ?
Will hunt for a marriage in Carnarvonshire.

I did have exactly the same idea which is why I tried 1888+/-2 for the marriage.
Thank you both

Anthony Thomas age 3  born Liverpool,  birth year 1887/1888.

I assumed that the link given by rosie was the 1881 result, not 1891
To order my thoughts I have
1911 census for
John Thamas    59
Elizabeth Thamas    44
Jane Ellen Thamas    18
Edward Richard Thamas    17
May Elizabeth Thamas    9 at Glyn terr Capelulo

1901 census for
John Thomas    49
Elizabeth Thomas    34
Andrew Thomas    13
Jane E Thomas    8
Edward R Thomas    7

  1891 census for
John Thomas   37
Elizabeth Thomas    24
Andrew Thomas    3
Edward John Thomas 3months

1911 census shows that 5 children born, 1 had died.  Am I correct in assuming that the name Edward had been used twice and that Edward John was the one which had died?
