John Davies 1809 Pontblyddn, Wales
« on: Sunday 25 December 16 11:36 GMT (UK) »
I am new to this site so please bear with me.  I noticed another member WILCOXON way back in 2007 was searching for information on Ann Davies (who married Thomas Foulkes, then Edward Jones), daughter of Gamekeeper John Davies born abt 1809 (married to Sarah Parry, then Elinor Thomas) I am also researching this family, in particular trying to find about John parents.  WILCOXON if you spot this message can you please PM me as I am unable to contact you.  I would also welcome any information  / help from other members.  thank you

Wilcox asked the question if John Davies had more than 1 daughter and he did indeed.  though I do not know when or where Ann Davies died.
