Anne Davies Llandulas

[SooCatt]

Help!
Can anyone help me track down Anne Davies born 1892 daughter of William Davies, who was a farmer in 1921 when Anne married George Jeffries in Abergele.  At that time George was a chauffer at Tan Rallt Hall Llandulas and Anne was resident at Llysdulas, Llandulas.

I have found a couple of 'possibles' on the 1901 cencus but none that really fit.  There is some possibility that Anne had a brother Walter and sister Jane.

Does anyone have access to baptism records?  Or can you tell me which Register Office would have birth records for this area?  There are a few Anne Davies on the GRO at about the right time and I don't want to have to send for them all.

Be glad of any info at all - anything !!

Thanks
Susan

Hello,
The church records of births marriages and deaths for both Llanddulas and Abergele can be found in  Denbighshire record office.

They have an electronic catalogue on the internet and a contact email if you need their help.
I shall look up the register office for that area for you.

Hi again
Here is the contact email for Abergele Register office:

louise.edwards@conwy.gov.uk

Register office, Market street, Abergele, Conwy county.

I find that if you give the registrar all the details you have then you do not pay for certificates which are not yours!

Cheers

Thanks for that Titch, I have e-mailed the record office.  There are so many Davies' in that area, all I need now is to find that her mother's maiden name was Jones!

 

Thanks again

Hi Susan,

If I can get to the archives today I'll see if I can find any baptisms.

Wow Paul
That would be fantastic.   

I should warn you then that I will be away for a week from tomorrow morning so if you do find anything please don't think me rude if I don't reply straight away. 

Look forward to hearing from you

Hi Susan,
Had a look at Llanddulas baptisms 1800-1910 the only Davies I could find with a Father William is, Alfred son of William & Jane. Yard Cottage, Llanddulas. Fathers Occ, Gardener. Could not see Anne, Walter or Jane.

The Flintshire records office (also keep Denbighshire records) only have Abergele baptisms upto 1889.

You said Anne married George Jeffries in Abergele in 1921
did they marry in Chapel or register office as I could not see their marriage in the Abergele marriage index.

Sorry I couldn't help.

Paul.

Curiouser and curiouser ... (is that how you spell that?)

Thanks so much for looking anyway Paul.  I really appreciate it.  At least I know she wasn't born there which will help narrow down the certificate search.

George and Anne married in St Paul's Wesleyan Chapel Abergele.  I wonder where she came from then? I suppose it could have been Abergele but wherever it was she must have moved into Llandulas when she was quite young as all her family thought she was born there.

Anyway thanks again.  I'm off now to see what to try next.

Hi Susan,
If she married in chapel she might have been baptised in chapel. The records they have at the archives are mainly C of E, next week I'll see if they have any for St Paul's Wesleyan Chapel.
Do you have a copy of her marriage cert?

Paul.
