I've found Thomas Owen Jones's parents's marriage entry in Llansilin  - your  5x great grandparents

Feb 8th 1839
John Griffiths, full age (i.e over 21), bachelor
occ - Parish Clerk
Residence - Llanrhaiadr yn Mochnant
Father - David Griffths, Parish Clerk

and

Jane Jones, full age, spinster
Residence - Golon Isaf, Llansilin
Father - Edward Jones, Groom

Both signed.

Witnesses - Thomas Owen Griffiths* and Ann Roberts

Could this be a brother of John's?

Thomas Owen Griffiths was buried at Hirnant 11 Jan 1902, aged 63

Noted on the burial record:

Quote
Parish Clerk of Llanwddyn from the year 1881 to the day of his death
.

The mention of Llanwddyn confirms the Vernwy link.

added - there are probably obituaries for him. I will look later if no one else finds any for you  :)
 


Would it be all possible to see if it says where he is buried? Does it have a photo ? Thank you xx

Hello! Gosh this is fun! His father was John Griffiths, his mother Jane. Thomas Owen Griffiths was my GGGrandfather, his wife was Phoebe Moralee, his daughter Phoebe Jane was my GGrandmother, her daughter Elizabeth, my grandmother. Phoebe Jane married Joseph Warburton in Liverpool in 1895, where they remained for the rest of life. My Grandmother moved south in 1924 to East Molesey Surrey where my mother was born. Which branch are you? Regards, Karen
