(more) Ruthin look-ups

[jones9]

I'm having a hard time tracking down a John Jones and wondered if anyone with access to parish records could see if there is a likely John Jones born in Ruthin ca.1705-1715 before I commit to buy parish record booklets!

There are a few on familysearch here: https://familysearch.org/search/record/results#count=20&query=%2Bgivenname%3AJohn~%20%2Bsurname%3AJones~%20%2Bbirth_place%3ARuthin%20%2Bbirth_year%3A1705-1715~

annoyingly lacking father's names!

Likely names for father would be: Richard, John, Robert, Thomas or Henry.

Thank you for your time!

thanks again Deirdre! I'll have a look at these and see if any are possible!

Do the middle three (John 1709, Thomas 1710 and Richard 1712) have mother's names?

Thank you!

Afraid not....

Think I've found father now - there's a will for a Thomas Jones in 1774, so would mean he died about 84 if the John born 1710 is his son - not impossible though as John lived to his 80s too.

As a final lookup, I wonder if you could please see if there are these/other children born to Thomas in Ruthin post 1710 (will says that John was eldest):

08 Aug 1717 - Richard Jones (only likely one)
03 Jan 1718  - Henry Jones (only likely one)
11 March 1710 - Thomas Jones (few possibilities)
17 June 1715 - "
28 September 1716 - "
16 August 1719 - "

Richardus Thoma Jones fil : Bapt Augusti 8 (1717)

Thomas:
11 Mar 1710 - father Johanis

28 Sept 1716 - father Eduardi
16 Aug 1719 - image hard to read but transcription says father Robert and mother May

Thanks Deirdre this is a great help!

Henry isn't actually mentioned as a son just John Richard and Thomas but they may not have lived to his will in 1770s.

Thanks again!

To renew this thread, I've been looking at quite a few wills and I think it's more likely that my John Jones was baptised in Llanfwrog (just outside Ruthin) ca.1700-1715 - could somebody please see which John Joneses are born between these years so I can start the elimination process again?

Thank you!
