Hi there
can anyone help me please - before I go totally bonkers (maybe it's too late!!)
I'm trying to find out more about my grt grt grandparents .
Only info I have is as follows
1901 Margaret living Bangor - widow - shows her place of birth as Denbigh Pentrefoelas
15/08/1900 Meshach passed away - son JRW present at time of death
1892 (son's wedding certificate) Bangor
1891 (census) Bangor - shows Meshach's place of birth as Anglesey, Almwch
1881 (census) Bangor
1865 married at parish church of Amlwch 21st June (have marriage certificate which shows father as being HEnry Williams and John Hussey Bugh respectively)
I've found some census records for 1871, 1861, 1851, & 1841 census records for Meshach with parents Henry & Margaret - but not 100% sure it's the right one! Sourced middle name for Meshach of Anwyl on familysearch - with Henry & Margaret as parents and his christening date as being 5th dec 1840 - but again, can't validate 100% same one yet (so many Williams!)...
Have several possible siblings from 1841 - 1871 census records - but really need to validate his parents through birth certificate before assuming it's the right parents - anfd that's where I get very stuck
I found one possible birth certificate, but when I applied to it the records office came back to say they couldn't trace it from the ref I provided!!
Can anyone please help me locate irth certificate details, parents (and their ancestry / roots) and grave - I assume in Bangor - of Meshach and Margaret
With regards Margaret - the only details I can find for her - other than marriage certificate and 1881, 1891, and 1901 census is: 1861 census was dairy maid (aged 17) working for Ellen Roberts a hotel keeper in Market Sq Almwch, Anglesey - shows her as being born in Denbighshire
thanks to anyone who can help
regards
