Agnes/Agnes Florence/Florie Frondo (b.c. 1878 Swansea)

[rutht22000]

This lady is driving me around the bend!

She marries Rees Thomas Jenkins on 14 May 1894 at St Mark, Swansea.  I have the marriage certificate and she marries as Agnes Frondo (writing is clear for the surname) and gives her father as Antony Frondo, a Ship Rigger.

In 1901 they are in Ellesmere Port, Cheshire (when she uses the name Florie) and by 1911 and 1921 they are back down in Swansea where she uses Agnes Florence.  She gives her place of birth as Swansea on both census'. 

She dies in 1925 in Swansea as Agnes F Jenkins, born 1878.

Before she marries Rees, I can find no trace of her, even with her saying she was born in Swansea.    I have a note she had siblings - Margaret, Edward and Thomas - but I managed not to record the source 

If anyone can find her before 1894 I would be grateful

Thank you
