Watkins & Clements, Pontypridd
« on: Wednesday 27 April 11 03:41 BST (UK) »
Looking for Eric(k) Saunders Watkins (born 1898 in Swansea) and his wife, Mildred Clements. They married in 1923 in Cardiff and, I believe, had two (or more) children who were born in Pontypridd.
Possible names are: (*) and (*) but more proof is needed.
This is one branch of the Watkins family descended from Howel and Mary (Jones) Watkins of Swansea. Howel Watkins was a Printer and one-time Mayor of Swansea in the 1800s.
I would be grateful if anyone can help me to find Eric(k)'s descendants (the above Howel Watkins was his grandfather).         Janice

Hello Janice  :)

Welcome to RootsChat!

Hi Jan,
I am new to Roots Chat today (26.10.21) and amazed I came across your post re Eric Watkins and Mildred Clements who I believe are my maternal grandparents. Yes they marry in Cardiff, move to Swansea and did have two children (Joyce Ann and Peter). Joyce being my mother. The information you provide in your post is correct and I would dearly love to discuss more with you and look forward to this.

Hi Cathy, welcome to Rootschat. I don’t come on here very often but have done a lot of research in Pontypridd so read the post. If you post three messages - even a reply to this and one other - you can then send a pm (private message) to Jan. Hope this helps. Good luck.
