Priscilla Jones

Cant see any Priscilla Jones daughter of Phillip in any UK census prior to 1875 marriage

I can't see any possible siblings for Priscilla among the deaths in Australia either.

Thanks William and Jo

I now have the death and both marriage certificates for Priscilla.

The dates and ages of children on the death certificate are grossly contradictory.

Priscilla's age in Jun 1875 is given as 20 (14 if she was aged 78 at her death!)

There is also a birthplace which I cannot decipher.  If you PM me your email address(es) I will fwd PDFs of the certs.

Thanks to the healthy eyesight of WelshJo, it seems Priscilla was born in Napoleon, Victoria (AUS) to Philip [or Phillip] Jones and Winifred Davies nee Williams.

Further contributions along this line are welcome!

Correction:  Birth place seems to be Napoleons, 5km south of Ballarat, Victoria.

Quick look on Ancestry shows a record in Australian Birth index for a
Philip Jones son of Philip Jones and Winnifred Williams born in Brunswick Victoria. Maybe someone with access to Australian records can see if there is any other info available.

Ancestry also has the following entry in the Australian death index

Elias David Jones son of Wfred Williams and Philip Jones - death 1902

Also the following listing in the Australian death index

Elizth Henderson - Mother Wfred Williams, Father Philip Jones - death 1934

Yes after seeing  the Certs etc we were sent I was going to pick up on the Davis/Williams confusion of Winifred's surname.She is definitely given as Williams on Priscilla's second marriage.
