The family of Richard H Roberts, Llanberis
« on: Tuesday 11 March 14 17:16 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

I am trying to track down a distant cousin who used to visit my family here in Canada. Her father was Richard H Roberts born 1877 in Llanberis. He married Emma Jane Duffett of Newfoundland, Canada in 1902 in Newfoundland and they moved back to Llanberis. I was told there were two daughters, Ellen and Kate, but the 1911 census lists Ellen (1905) and Bertha (1909). Ellen is the cousin who returned to Newfoundland to visit her extended family. From what my aunts can remember, Ellen married a man surnamed Edwards who was well known in the community, but for what they are unsure. I would love to know who Ellen's husband was and also the death dates of both Richard and Emma. Thank you in advance and if I can return the favor somehow, please just ask.

Thank you! Is this information available online? If there were other children I'd like to look through the records and see what I can find.
