Tracing some Welsh emigrants - Emily Florence Allen m Frank Jones

[little alison]

I've been trying to trace this couple, born in Denbighshire, Wales. They are in the 1901 census in the Wrexham district, living in Gwersyllt. I can't find them after that until a passport application in 1922, in Bridgeport, Connecticut.

They had two children, Fanita (possibly Ethel Fanita) and Horace Jones, but I don't know where they were born, and I don't know when the couple emigrated.

There's a very confusing tree on Ancestry uk which I don't think is accurate! And I can't access some American records.

I don't know if Fanita - my mother's cousin - ever married. I do have a photo of her in the early 1970s and I've recently identified the place as Los Angeles. My mother visited twice from Britain and Fanita's address was in Port Huaneme 50 miles from there.

That's a long way from Connecticut and big gaps in my information....can anyone help?

Cas -  thanks for these two,  that's very helpful.
I now see there's a new reply, but I will have to check  that out tomorrow - obviously I need to look harder at Familysearch! Thanks again.

Frank's manifest is indexed incorrectly also, or I would send you a link.
I have attached the image of the last residences of the party traveling together, since I'm sure I didn't get the Welsh locations correct. Maybe someone can read them and know where they are.

I have screenshots of Frank's and Emily's manifests and can email them to you if you like.

If that is still a problem, PM me and we can exchange email addresses that way.
