This may be a bit of a challenge, as I suspect JOhn is not local. this chap is  next door in 1861 - address is Is Helen

John Jones    40 - b Llanfachreth, Denbighshire
Jane Jones    33
Thomas Jones    3
John Wynne Jones    1
Elin Jones    24

Maybe not him - he's still married to Jane in 1881

Thanks for your replies. I assumed (fatal, I know) that Sarah Thomas  had married 'the Jones boy  next door'. Jane is home in 1861 but not home in 1871. She returns as Sarah Jones, a widow, to the family home by 1881.

Shall have to look for another Jones who married Sarah Thomas in that time frame in Llanbeblig.

Thanks again for all your help.

How old was she in 1861?

Thomas was 29.

Possible burial for him there 18 Nov 1867 age 35

The 1861 Census was taken 7 April.

Had high hopes for this one, Trish, but ages are wrong. Sarah was 24 in 1851 and 34 in 1861. However, checking 1881 census again widowed Sarah's age is given as 49, so this may be a different Sarah altogether! She is 'head' of the household in 1891, with age as 59.  Back to the drawing board.
