How do I find out what happened to them?
« on: Friday 26 October 07 23:46 BST (UK) »
I have recently found from the lds site that Thomas Jones Roberts and Ermyn/Ermine, had two daughters as well as four sons, the only info I have is Jane Roberts b Jul 1830 and Hannah b Jun1832, I can find nothing else about these two, they do not appear on the 1841 census so presume they could have died. On the 1841 census Thomas and Ermyn lived at Henllan Street, Henllan, in 1851 they are shown as living Foxhall Newydd but the two girls are not shown, what parish records do I need to look in? are they on line? How do I find out if they really are part of my tree?
Any advice or help appreciated
Margaret

Hello Margaret, I'll look at the parish records for Henllan next week to see what I can find.

Thank you very much Paul. I imagine the first Hannah must have died prior to 1841, therfore not on the census and mabe the reason for the second one named Hannah in 1843, I have to say I did not no anything about the second Hannah so that is very interesting.
Could you tell me where you looked up these parish records. I am hoping to visit the area early next year and will have to base myself as close as possible to where I can get access to these records, as well as looking up details regarding the sons.
Best regards
Margaret

my friend is trying to trace his ROBERTS ancestors and it may be that they connect back to Thomas ROBERTS and Ermyn (nee JONES) - their son Robert ROBERTS appears to have died in Canada in 1915 -but it seems his son Thomas Jones ROBERTS ended up in Norfolk and didn't move with the rest of the family to Canada - it is then his son Tom Frederick ROBERTS that gets complicated  :-\

I would be very interested to hear more about this connection that goes back to Thomas and Ermyn, they are indeed my family, all the other areas you have mentioned are correct plus I have rather a lot of info regarding Tom Frederick Roberts.
I look forward to hearing from you and where the connection is actually made.
Regards
Margaret

Hello I am the friend mentioned in Plimmerian's post - he has been helping me trace my family tree

my grandfather was Tom Frederick Roberts who married Hilda Mary Royal (we can't find the marriage) and my friend thinks, from research on ancestry, that he married a Clara Hedger and may have had a third wife from trees submitted there

I don't know as much about my Roberts side as I do about my Mum's side and am just trying to piece it all together

thank you

Hello 'Wisdom 59'
You have indeed found the correct family, however some of the info is rather too sensative to post on an open board owing to 'living' family members, would you care to email me on (*) and informing me of the name of your parents or your parent connected to Tom and Hilda.
wait your reply.
regards
Margaret
