New Zealand Completed Requests / Jones & Beech families Hawera area
« on: Sunday 21 August 16 09:59 BST (UK)  »
(Sorry originally posted on wrong board)
Hi, I would like to hear from anyone researching these Jones & Beech familes (originally Welsh farmers) who came over to NZ around the early 1900’s? My grandfather’s brother Robert Henry Jones (1887 – 1964) and his wife Catherine Beech, they farmed at Goodson Road, Hawera. Children: Ceridwen Elizabeth, Doris Elsie, Cecil Lloyd, Gladys Mary, Phillis Mabel, Irene May. Also connected were Thomas Alun Jones (c1875) SA then NZ. John Owen Jones who married Sarah Jones at Hawera Wesleyan Church 6/8/1910. Beech family of Katka-tamea and Vera Hey (nee Beech) well known musician.
I’m in the UK and trying to knit together the various connections.

I'm awfully sorry, I didn't realise you were new to RootsChat. I think new members have to reach a certain number of posts before they can use personal messaging. I will send you another pm with my contact details because I have some useful documents to send you.

Denbighshire / Re: Faraway aka Plas Faraway, Llandegla "Completed"

The three sisters Louisa, Emily and Edith Roberts of Faraway are listed in "Llandegla circa 1945-50" by Alun Williams (very useful info about the people of the district, the link is too long to put on here, so just Google it). Thanks for your help everyone.

Just my luck re. the 1861 census. However managed to get the information I was looking for from the newspapers (good tip to use the inverted comas!).
Thanks to you both for your efforts.
