I think this might be the witness at John’s marriage, his brother I presume, sadly no birth record for either but it looks like they were born in the County.

Robert Amos married Jane Evans 10 May 1833 Bagillt, Flintshire

1841 – Holywell, all born Flintshire.

Robt Amos 35, Jane 30

Martha 6, Joseph 3, Thomas 1


Colin
Clarke, Trickett, Orton, Lawless, Norton, Detheridge, Kirby, Goodfellow, Wagstaff, Lowe, etc.

Hello Colin and Mabel
If John and Robert are two brothers I do wonder why they both died so young, John 34yrs and Robert 42yrs, were deaths recorded in a local newspaper at this time?

Thomas 9yrs showing in the 1841 Census with his mother Jane and siblings, 1851C with mother 18yrs, is the grandfather of Edith Amos who married my grandfather's brother William James Froggatt (ka James), Edith is buried with her husband and my grandfather in Crewe Cemetery, Cheshire, although only Edith's name is to be found on the gravestone.

Amos seems to be a popular surname around 1841 and before, do you know if where any records of churches baptisms, marriages and deaths are kept?

I have tried several times to go further back with John who married Jane Roberts, so many families with the surname Amos it gets confusing  ???

Thank you for your interest, appreciated.

Nothing obvious in online welsh newspapers for John or Robert's deaths
