Hi. Been researching John Owens who was baptised Wrexham 9/12/1792, base son of David Rogers and Cath Owens.A Cath Owens was in the area married to a Mr. Owens and having children.A Cath Owens died in Brymbo in 15/11/1798.Has any one any info as to whether either of these are the same woman or when and where she or David Rogers was born.I have looked in the microfiche at the N.L.W. but very difficult to read with bad back and long sight!Also did'nt realise there may be other local parish records.Hope someone may have the thread.Thanks.

Hi, welcome to Minera. You seem to have already done a lot of research. Depending on where you live, there are many BMD Parish Register Transrciptions in A N Palmer centre, Bersham, or the Clwyd FH centre in Cefn. You may be able to check the for marriage of Mr Owens ( if you have a first name )and Cath in the Hayes marriage index to see when they were married. The problem is - the further back you go the less detail is given. For those times they would more than likely be in Wrexham, St Giles PR`s. freespace.virgin.net/jill.farndon25/index.htmlThis is a good site, with an index to names and where they appear in PR`s. It may help. There may be other people on here with PR`s I`ve just started looking at an Owens family from Brymbo / Bwlchgwyn , but havn`t got that far back yet.

Thanks for more pointers.I'll follow up.My John Owens married Mary Jones from Llangollen in 1825 and had three sons,Richard, John and Edward.They then moved to Tredegar where they all mined even Edward who was 8 at that time[1841] I'm descended from John.Thanks.
