Joseph Henry Thomas COMPLETE

I've since found that both Spanish and Italians migrants arrived around the turn of the century   Seems the Spanish came to work the iron ore, and the Italians to feed the people    Time for bed now I think, still fascinated though

Hello

Just a thought do you know when Pura died?? and do you have their marriage details

I don't have the marriage cert, do you think it would be wise to get hold of that?  She died on the 3/4/89, God rest her soul x

(as you can see, I haven't gone to bed, burning the midnight oil with this LOL)

Hi

Well the Marriage certificate will give you the following information

Ages of them both
address they lived at
Thier occupations
And both Father's and their occupations as well

also you will get 2 witness's which in a lot of cases can be family members

Details of the marriage are as follows

Marriages Jun Q 1934

Thomas Joseph Spouse Trancho Merthy T 11a Page 1496
Trancho Pura Spouse Thomas Merthy T 11a Page 1496

You can gain a lot of information and could possibly help get you onto the 1901 census and tracing backwards as their father's should obviously be around by then

PS it soon gets addictive LOL

Ahh I see!  Those page numbers, where do you find those please?  I think I would have been better off with their marriage cert, but I didn't know any dates at the time.  It would have saved me getting both birth certs to get parent's names.  I will make sure I get those next time.  I am dead excited about the Census info :-)  Did I read someplace that you can buy that on disk?

[anneymouse]

The birth certificates I've been eagerly awaiting haven't arrived yet, but I just got notification of a refund - apparently Pura wasn't born between 1910 and 1912 in Merthyr, as it says on the marriage certificate

Hi

Where did you find the detail to order the birth certificates?? Just wondering the information I posted was for the marriage of Joseph and Pura I am looking for her birth now

Hello

I have found her Birth but she has not been registered under Trancho

Here goes

Birth's December Q 1911
Francho Pura Mother's maiden Name Montes Merthyr T 11a Page 1620

Also found this

Birth's Sep Q 1910
Trancho Santiago Merthyr T 11a Page 876

As the birth was registered under Francho they would not have found it under Trancho you will have to order it as francho as this was obviously a mis transcription

Im sure the 1910 Trancho will be a sibling to Pura However the mother's maiden being registered alongside the birth did not start until September 1911 There were no further Trancho birth's in the period 1905 to 1920
