District 22, Upper & Lower Llangerniew
Marchaled, Llangernieu, Denbighshire
Robert Jones, 70
Elinor Jones, 65
John Jones, 35
Hannah Roberts, 9
Isaac Roberts, 4
all born in county
ref Piece 1402/Folio 7/Page5/Line1

Robert signed a will in 1846 which is on line at the NLW site year 1850
John Jones was his son
Hannah was his grandaughter.  Isaac a grandson.  In the will they are described as children of Robert's daughter Marry who was married to a Robert Roberts of Ty Mawr, which is listed lower down on the same census page.  Other daughters were Elizabeth married to a John Owens and Jane w/o William Roberts.

I don't have access to Llangerniew PRs but hopefully others may do     Robert Jones must have been a fairly successful farmer as he left six properties in his will.  Were you able to access the will ok through the NLW site Aled?   

[aled23]

yes i've read it Heather thanks,very interesting , no properties ever came down to me unfortunately,

On the map it seems that marchaled, ty mawr and ty newydd are all neighbouring each other, but have'nt found the bryn ffynon (i think)  mentioned!

thanks for all your help Heather

Oh I know that feeling     From what I understand most of the properties mentioned in 19th century and earlier wills were leaseholds rather than full ownership - unless of course your relative was a large estate owner.    I have a 3rd great grandfather from Bangor that left some properties on land there but it appears the land was leased for three lifetimes.   After his grandchildren died off everything reverted back to the church
