Lookup Request please
« on: Thursday 30 January 14 09:59 GMT (UK) »
Can somebody please help with finding detail for:

John Lewis, b 1818, St David's (baptism)

He married Jane ?? (surname unknown) in the early 1840's. I suspect this was also in St Davids.

Their daughter Doris Lewis, was born 1847, St Davids.

I would appreciate help 'fleshing' out details for the above.

Thanks,
Bob

This is looking good.

I do know that the John Lewis I'm after was a tailor.

I do believe you have all the information - confirmed by the fact I have John as a tailor in the 1861 census and still living in New St, St Davids.

Thanks.
Bob

This might be John ....John son of William Lewis ( tailor ) and Jane whose maiden name was Price was born Pembroke dock on the 8th of December 1820 was baptised June 10th by me Can't make the minister's name out ....England & Wales Non Conformist and Non Parochial Registers ..The best thing would be to look for a death certificate to confirm parent's  :)
