llangollen Parish records
« on: Monday 04 January 10 14:41 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to trace the birth of my great great grandfather Thomas Morris who was born in Llangollen in late 1839 or early 1840.  His parents were John (who was a gardener) and Mary Morris and he had siblings called John, Charles, Edward and Eleanor.  I can find him in the 1841 census, but no birth registration.  His sister Eleanor's christening is on the Mormon website but not Thomas's. By 1851 the family have moved to Tranmere.  He married a Sarah Knox who came from Toxteth and also a Priscilla Cutler - but I can't find any marriage records.  His daughter Sarah helped to bring me up as a child and it is so frustrating not to find anything about him!

Please can anyone help?  many Thanks   ::)

Hi Crazycaz

Welcome to Rootschat  :)

I've got the records that cover that period for Llangollen. They're not to hand but I'll go check them.

Hi

Got the dates mixed up - I don't have the later records. Only up to 1836.  Sorry  :-[

I'll PM one of the other members, Paul, who might well be able to get the info from the records office  :)

Just to let you both know that I have deleted the duplicate post for this request - it was causing some confusion!

Yes they're all there  but sadly we don't have any Thomas after the 1833 baptism and he died 1835  :(

I think Paul might be our best option  :)

However, I'm wondering if they were not C of E and therefore Thomas's bapt would not appear  as most of these non-conformist records finish in 1837  :-\

Hi Gadget  :)
Just posted them incase crazycaz hadn't already got them. She only mentioned having Eleanor's baptism.

Hope Paul comes up trumps  ;)
