Williams (of Llangoed/Beaumaris) help? Please?

That too. I just need to figure out David, LOL. I've heard nothing about a David.. but that doesn't mean anything. Also who John Williams was married to prior to Mary Dunsford. Hmmmm

There is another 1861 census which may be relevant (have you already seen this?):

RG09/4346/62/29 - at White Lion lane, Beaumaris
Thomas Williams, 81, Pensioner, b. Llangoed, Anglesey
Mary Williams,30, Dressmaker, b. Ireland

I've also found death registrations:

Elizabeth Williams d. 25 Feb 1855 age 77 at Tan y Wern, Llandegfan, wife of boatman Thomas Williams. Informant Mary Williams.
Thomas Williams d. 13 Nov 1866 age 86 at New St, Beaumaris, Coast Guard (retired). Informant Edward Hughes.

It seems Mary Williams married Edward Hughes - A,M,J 1863 Bangor 11b 983, civil marriage.

No. I've not seen either of those. I've been trawling through ancestry and UK census online but haven't found that! Amazing!

Hi you have seen the 1861 census!

Yes, I have every census from 1841 onward with John (and Mary) Williams. Just nothing prior to that.

Hi again, the baptism of Thomas possibly is:-

Thomas William Hughes 20th January 1865 Beaumaris Father Edward Mother Mary.

EDIT No, aprehensive of this one?

Odd as this one suggests New Street as mentioned above as the place that Thomas Williams died in 1866?

Yes, I have every census from 1841 onward with John (and Mary) Williams. Just nothing prior to that. 

So where have you John/Mary in 1861 census?

[sarahkatz]

I have them in the 1861 census at Portsea, Hampshire; he's listed as a chief boatman, coast guard. It'd make sense considering his father Thomas was listed as the same.

  I would therefore consider if that baptism of Thomas William/s Hughes 1865 Beaumaris address New Street is relevant, and why did Thomas go to Wicklow to enable birth of Mary?
