Beatrice Maud Lawrence
« on: Monday 24 June 13 10:17 BST (UK) »
I know all about Beatrice Maud Lawrence up to the 1911 census. Beatrice was born as a Beatrice Maud Treonfe in 1884. I know the surname of the family was changed to Lawrence just before 1900. I am assuming she may of married a Trevor Davies in 1919 but this is only guess work. Her mother Alma Dorothy Lawrence died in 1934 In Pontypridd.
Beatrice had siblings William and Theresa/Teresa.
Would be lovely if any one out there were researching this family.
Any help appreciated.

 ???Treonfe.  Is this a Welsh surname?  It seems very unusual.  Sandra

It is unusual isn't it, not heard of it before. Just looked at FreeBMD and the three Treonfe children and the Lawrence Triomfi marriage are the only records for each name  ::)

 1891  census   says  Lawrence Treonfe  was born in Malta, so presumably   it's a Maltese   name ,   it sounds a bit Italian to me

Apart from the 1919 marriage of BML to Trevor Davies there's another Pontypridd one in 1922 to Edward J Jones.

Unfortunately there are a number of Davies and Jones births to Lawrence mothers, but no Alma, Dorothy, Beatrice, Maud or Lawrence to help the search..
