COMPLETED: Looking for date of birth and Parents of Ellen Roberts of Amlwch
« on: Saturday 21 October 23 15:15 BST (UK) »
Ellen (also known as Ellenor) is my gg grandmother. She married my gg grandfather William Hughes in 1851. She died in 1884 (date on gravestone). I have 1822 as an estimated dob from the census. My mother said that older family members previously told her that one or both of Ellen's parents might be from Ireland.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

1851 census in Criccieth

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SGV2-LXZ

Possible for 1841, William Roberts a copper miner

not finding baptisms for the children yet, so the family could be non-conformist.

Yes, that is them. Thank you very much. I had not realised that the original (paid-for) document had this extra information.

Thanks for that.
I don't know about Ellen and her family, but my great-grandfather (i.e. her son) was a non-conformist, so that suggests that maybe he came from a non-conformist family. (He went to Ebenezer in Borth y Gest, but different sites disagree on the denomination.)

from this, it would appear to be Calvinistic Methodist

Thanks.  I saw that, and another which said Presbyterian and another which said Independent. Or perhaps they just changed / merged over time.
