Also the electoral registers for both the Woking & Ottershaw address had her as Olwen V Rice  ;D

I am really pleased that it is all coming together  ;D

I've had no reply from the originator of the 'Williams' tree that contains Mary Ann Jones. There's been no activity for over a year and as it is there to view I feel I can link to it. Although it doesn't provide any information on her parents it does give details for Robert Williams, her husband, his parents, siblings etc. It also indicates that she had a son prior to the marriage, and states that he had one brother. There seems to be quite a bit of half siblings going on!

If there is no access I can put a zip file together.

Also I made a couple of calls to Canada (from phone listings) and waiting for a response!

OK. I'm away for a couple of days but will put a file together as soon as I return.

An update! I'm still working on the 'forwards' in Canada (she seems to be something of an enigma)...but...the 'backwards' was irritating! So I started working on a zip file and then names, places started to drop into place... so I wanted to tell you that your input has been paramount . I'll transcribe and scan what I'm working on but just wanted to let you know that....

We know that Veronica's sister, Mary Ann, married Robert Williams. We know that Veronica also had a brother John R. Jones.

I reckon that her brother married Robert Williams' sister.....

John Richard Jones (1900-1983) married Laura Ellen Williams (1908-1985)

John Richard Jones: born 18 October 1900, Bell Vliew, Penygroes, died 13 June 1983, 4 Lleuar Terrace, Pontllyfni.

Laura Ellen Williams (1908-1985) born 3 August 1908, PontyCryddwr, Llanllyfni. died 4 August 1985, 29.Ty.n Caeau, Llantairpwll, Ynys, Mon.

It's great to look over the past pages of the post (particularly the later ones  :)  )

So where do WE go from here?   ;)

Even though we have not positively identified a birth/baptism record for Veronica/Olwen,are you confident her parents/family are the ones at 7 Old Tram Road and,if so,do you want to trace her parents "backwards".The only other option I can see at the moment is a speculative purchase of a birth certificate based on best information to date,though I suspect there wouldn't be unanimity on which one!

Roger, you are spot on. It's reached impasse. So much time spent trawling; theories but nothing that ties up! It's frustrating that I've had no response from the 'Ancestry Williams' tree that is so specific. I'll continue transcribing and pm to all...if only for curiosity.

As you say Roger, it's a case now of certificates. I'm waiting for a call from my 'Molly' so that I can give her the financial reality of continuing the  search. Personally I don't like loose ends but it's a question of limits.

Whatever the outcome...thanks for everything.

Regards,

Colin

Cheers,

Colin

Has anybody found them in 1901? There should be Richard, Mary, and John Richard, presumably in Penygroes. But I can't see them.

There is a possibility they are in Llandwrog at RG13/5269/60/25 with Richard's father John.
