James Richards & Mary (Rowlands)
« on: Wednesday 14 June 23 16:57 BST (UK) »
Looking for any info on my ggg grandparents: James Richards & wife Mary Rowlands of Newport, Pembs.
James was born circa 1811 in Newport - may have had at least one brother: Thomas
Mary was born circa 1814 in Penybryn, Cardiganshire
Info on James' parents would be particularly useful also.
Thank you very much for any help
Gaetan

I can see Mary & children in 1851 but no James.  Have you found him on any census?  If not - where did you get his birthyear & birthplace from?

CaroleW, thank you
James' 1811 birth year was told me by a distant cousin but I've always suspected it's wrong.
I believe James and Mary had six children, one being John, my gg grandfather.
