how to find her?
« on: Wednesday 27 June 18 14:19 BST (UK) »
Elizabeth Thomas Lloyd that is - she is mentioned (as deceased) in an ancestors will from 1848 (proven 1850).
My ancestors family had married into the Davies family of Bronllys Castle and through them into the Lloyd family of Thomas Lloyd Lord Lieutenant of Breconshire temp Henry VIII.
I'm assuming Elizabeth is of this line but where can I find records to search for her death and so for her will?

thank you for any advice/hints/links that can help me shed some light

Hi

Does it mention any more about her in the will and is she listed with others?
Also, who is and where does the testator live? 
I think more info about the family as it was in 1840-50 would help.

I've checked f Welsh Wills online for her but so far can't find anything that could be her. There are many Elizabeth Lloyd returned :

Can't find an embarrassed smiley but I think I've made a mistake..........
Rechecking the will it looks more like Row than Lloyd - I must remember to recheck not rely on memory...........

Thank you Gadget for looking and my apologies for wasting your time

Here it is - the red face:

Don't worry - it didn't take long and it kept me from ironing for a little longer   ;D

Think I'd better give up for today - if I can't even find the red face how will I find an ancestor....

There is a will for an Elizabeth Row, 1795, Pembrokeshire, if it's any help whatsoever:
