I have another family that I am trying to research and they are Evan Williams born about 1853 Brymbo ? his fathers name was a John Williams, Evan got married to a Mary Jane Davies in 1883 at Christ Church Bwlchgwyn. In the 1901 census he is living in Brymbo as a Coal Hewer age 46.
I've had a quick look at the census and there are a few Evan Williams with fathers name as John, so its hard to see which one is mine. Again thank you for what ever help you can give me.

Hello Tracey,
Thank you ever so much for the census information as I never had this one, its a pity there are no IGI entries for Christ Church or else I may have found his details on there, thats if he was Ch. in the same church.
Thank you also for the birth details, it has been a big help. All the best Rhiannon

Hi, The only Evan Williams on the 1881 census about the right age is the following one
David Griffiths 38 David Griffiths 10 Jane Griffiths 36 Jane Griffiths 13 Edward Vaughan 56 Evan Williams 26
Meifod, Denbighshire, Wales, is a Coal Miner and is a boarder with this family.
This is the only Evan Williams of the right age in 1871 living in Broughton.
Eliza Williams 7 Evan Williams 18 Hannah Williams 40 Hannah Williams 10 Sarah Williams 1 Thomas Williams 48 Thomas H Williams 5
This is the 1861 census
Elizabeth Williams 6 Evan Williams 8 Hanah Williams 30 Hanah Williams 11 Mo Jane Williams 10 Samuel Williams 11 Mo Thomas Williams 38
this is the 1851 census
Cathrine Davies 51 Elizabeth Davies 13 Samuel Davies 53 Samuel Davies 11 Thomas Davies 18 Hannah Williams 30 Thomas Williams 25
I don't know if this is your Evan but there is no other Evan around your date of 1853. Norma

nainffrith4 I also saw those entries for Evan Williams in Brymbo and broughton but the name of his father was incorrect from what was stated on the marriage certificate as Rhiannon states his fathers name is John so until Rhiannon gets a copy of the birth certificate we cannot assume this is the same family. You never know the clerk at the church may have written the wrong name down but its best to wait an see the evidence. Im pretty sure this is Rhiannon's ancestors birth record as he was the only Evan Williams in the geographical area for that year. and the years 1852 and 1854
Tracey ;D

Hi Tracy, I think if you read my message you would see I didn't state that this was the family only that this was the only Evan Williams on the census with a similar age, I never assume things until I have checked them out therefore I was giving Rhiannon the information so she could check them out for herself.

Thank you Tracey and Norma, if I never had people like you helping me I would not have half as much information as I have right now and for that I am forever grateful, sometimes you have the right information and other times its incorrect but the fact that you have taken time out of your lifes to help a stranger I just can't say thank you enough, it is lovely that so many are willing to help. I will send of for Evan on the birth date that Tracey gave me and hopefully it will be the right Evan, I will be keeping my fingers crossed. Thank you both once again.

Norma Sorry Norma if i offended you I did not mean to sound Condescending and I apologise what i meant to say is that Thomas Could be related to Evan Williams but I'm sure the Birth Certificate will clarify that. I'm sorry again Tracey
