Hi Ticker,
Sorry, I think I have put this on the wrong board, but there seem to be many Jones's in Ludlow from looking at the Census's & most probably not related to mine.
I am only tracing the family as mentioned. Its was my paternal grandmother's family. My greatgrandfather Thomas Jones was born, possibly in Eccleshall, Staffs and his father, Robert was born, possiby in St Marys, Stafford. I have recently found Robert on 1871 census in Leominster, Herefordshire. Thomas was in Ludlow as far back as 1860 & possibly before. Both were photographers. The family stayed in Ludlow for many years. Thomas's eldest son, Walter, another photographer, was still there in 1901. Thomas retired to Saltford, Somerset by 1901 census. If you think you can point me in the right direction, I would be greatful. I know very little about the family apart from this.
Thanks for your reply, & happy new year
