Hi, I clicked on to Hereford, and read this posting, but my geography of this are is not very good so I am hoping this might be a link to the Simmonds family I am searching.
I know my grand mother was born in somewhere in Hereford, and resided at some time in Symons Yat until she married my grandfather and, moved to Aberdare and then immigrated to Canada, where she died at the young age of thirty seven giving birth to her eleventh child (giving these detail in case there is a connection and maybe you might have family history on her)
Her fathers name I believe was William Simmonds and he mothers name was Mary Green.
After her death the family returned to Wales and I remember visiting Hereford to an aunt Lizzie probably Elizabeth, and an aunt Polly These could have been sisters or nieces to my grandmother.
She also had a sister Harriet.
I know this is very little information but I have been searching my tree on genesunited for four years with very little outcome on the Simmonds family, but did pick up on two relatives on an off chance with this information.
I apologise if this info is of no use but now I am clutching at straws to continue my family tree.
Good luck with your search, sallylesley
