DAVIES FAMILY, WORTHEN.

[eric]

Can any one please help me , I'm trying to trace the Davies family at Worthen in the late 1700's
They had two children maybe more, a son called Aeron born 1789 and a further son called Edward born 1792 or there abouts.
Any help would be appreciated, Many thanks, Eric.

Hello Eric

I've just replied to your other thread about the later Davies family members!!
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,220565.0.html

I think the Aaron born 1789 that you mention I've already found in the 1851 census:

HO107/Piece 2498 Folio 344 Page 28
Brockton, Montgomeryshire

Aaron Davies Head M 67 Shopkeeper Grocer & Draper born Salop Worthen
Mary Davies Wife M 58 Shopkeepers Wife born Salop Kinnersley
Edward Davies Nephew U 21 Assistant to Grocer born Montgomeryshire Llandrinio
Thomas Davies Nephew U 20 Assistant to Grocer born Montgomeryshire Llandrinio
Elizabeth Jones Servant 10 House Servant born Montgomeryshire Forden

You've got some more Davies relations to check out!!!!!!!


and living next door

Elizabeth Davies Head Widow 60 Annuitant born Salop Kinnersley
Ann Jones Servant 12 House Servant born Montgomeryshire Forden

I think this is Edward born 1792:

Edward Davies Head M 59 Lead Miner born Salop Worthen
Ann Davies Wife M 55 Lead Miners wife born Salop Minsterley

Ann ,
Sorry for my rather late reply to the above, a member of my family must have read your reply and I overlooked it.
I believe you have done a great job tracing my roots , but I cannot fit in the last bit . Edward Davies 59 the lead miner and family. Edwards wifes name was Elizabeth, they had a son William, his age should have been around 17 years old in 1851. I have little background information on William.
Edward Davies was previously a shopkeeper in Llandrinio.I believe later he was maybe a miller.
 Once more very many thanks. Eric.

Hi Eric

Edwards wifes name was Elizabeth, they had a son William, his age should have been around 17 years old in 1851. I have little background information on William.
Edward Davies was previously a shopkeeper in Llandrinio.I believe later he was maybe a miller.

I can check this family out again for you, but before I do, can you let me know approximate years of birth for Edward and wife Elizabeth please?

Jan,
Thanks for your prompt reply, This is the imformation I have at present which I believe to be reasonably accurate, Edward Davies born circ 1792, [place of birth not known] Elizabeth his wife[maiden name unknown]  born Worthen, [she may have been a millers daughter, pure speculation] Three sons from baptism records, Edward George Davies, baptised August 9th 1829, Llandrinio. Thomas Davies, baptised February 20th 1831, Llandrinio. Thomas Davies born 1834 [ I'm not sure where I got this] I know of no other siblings, but there could possibly be others older or younger children. It would be extremly interesting to find some information prior to 1829 when the first son I have data about. Once more very many thanksfor the the help you have given me ,todate, Kind regards, Eric.
