I recently found 3 Obituaries in the Leader for relations of Marian James and on the one for her mother it mentions Roy, Lydia and children Minera. Marian told me the family emigrated soon after her mother died in Oct 1957. As I have some Electors Lists for about this time, I naturally looked to see where they were living in Minera and failed to find them. I could not find a marriage either so perhaps someone with greater expertise could possibly try-Thankyou----Leonard Roy James b abt 1921 married to Lydia and the three children were Maureen, Nigel and Donald. Thanks Tom

Hi, I did find 3 baptisms in the Mold PRs but not Griffith which is the one I really wanted. Also the poss marriage of Griffith was a non starter so I am still looking for a marriage of Griffith Jones to a Sarah probably in the Mold Llanarmon area. Tom

Hi, I did make it to Hope Church open day and found all of the listed baptisms plus a few more odds and ends, which I was able to take pics of. It is a great place for finding any baptisms, burials and weddings records and much cheaper than the Register Office. If anyone ever requires these baptisms they will be more than welcome--Regards Tom

I seem to recall someone on this site had a record of the baptisms in Hope Church-possibly Sharon ? if so I require the following please as they are on the fringes of my wifes family. Parents William & Elizabeth Griffiths (nee Maddocks) Elizabeth b abt 1830 Martha b abt 1835 William b abt 1836 John b abt 1838 Margaret b abt 1840 Ann b abt 1843 Jane b abt 1845 Mary b abt 1849 I have the bapt of the oldest son Edward 31 8 1828 but will be grateful for any of the others. I intend going to the next open day as all the records are available but it may be some way off. Thanks Tom

Hi, Just hoping someone will be able to help me flesh out these relations so to speak of John David Jones. Poss bapt. etc. Griffith Jones b abt 1820 Mold (John David's Grandad) Peter Jones b abt 1825 Mold Priscilla Jones b abt 1828 Mold Jane Jones b abt 1831 Mold---all taken from the 1851 Census when they were living with their parents Thomas Jones & Catherine in Tryddyn Ucha, Llwynegrin, Mold. I have a poss marr for Griffith in Llanfair DC Ruthin Mar Q 1854 but no details to verify same. I also have Census details for 1851, 1861, 1871 and 1881 for him but no death details Thanks

Hi, The marriage mentioned earlier of George James was in Berse Church 25 7 1931 and his father was James James Deceased-no occupation given which I would think rules him out

Hi, Yes that is the one and still no mention of records is it because it is a private chapel etc ?

Hi just realised the link to Bersham Church-Genuki is in fact Berse Church so I still need to know if there are any Parish Records for Bersham Parish Church--could not find it on Genuki. Found a pic of it on Clwyd Family History but no mention of records. Appreciate I can always ring the Palmer centre to find out which I may do this week.

Hi, Thanks again--This has satisfied my curiosity regarding who lived there about 1901 just in case it was the Hulmes family or a relation looking after Sarah Jane since her mother died etc. Will put this to bed now so thanks again-Tom

Hi, I have just established David Jones was at the death of Sarah Jane Jones in 8 Manley Rd. Coedpoeth in January 1900 so we have certainly got the right one ;D Thankyou to anyone who helped along the way---I am just wondering who lived in 8 Manley Rd in 1901 and is it poss to find out somehow from the census. Her father David is living in Tyn y Wern, Esclusham Above in 1901. I am more than happy to be able to put all these facts in now so Thanks Again Tom

Hi, Just putting this original entry on-----to have some feedback re the age of Sarah Jane Jones-----I have always read this as 17 but if it was 12 it would solve problem---could not find anyone aged 17 in deaths with same name but maybe others could. Thanks Tom Attachments:

Hi, Thanks again! Sarah Jane's father David only had one brother as far as I know and his name was James Jones marr to Sarah Jones. James had a grandchild named Sarah Jane Jones b 1905. I really need to find out age and who the father is of the one who died in 1900 and is buried in Minera just in case the burial record age is wrong--will the reg office part with these details I wonder.

Hi, Thanks again, I did check with the Palmer Centre re the marr to Andrew and Sarah Jane 's father was named Richard so we can forget that one. I will try to find the family from Bwlchgwyn next in 1911 so that I can eliminate that one. I still think she died young as there does not seem to be any memory of any reference to her by existing descendants. Tom

Hi, I have now received some more info from Marian but John David Jones's sister Sarah Jane Jones born Bersham aged 4 yrs on the 1891 census remains a mystery She is not with the family in 1901 and I have always presumed she died but have not been able to positively identify any exact deaths with correct age. i.e. there is a Sarah Jane Jones from Coedpoeth buried in Minera 1900 but her age is 17 years. Also there is a S. J. J. aged 14 yrs on the 1901 census as an adopted daughter to John Price Edwards And his wife Ann in 3 Bryn Nebo, Bwlchgwyn. I could not find this family in the 1911 census but there is a Sarah Jane Jones who marries an Arthur Andrew in Bersham Church 1915. Does anyone know if there are any Parish records available for Bersham Parish Church abt 1915. Hoping some fresh minds will find something. Thanks Tom

Hi, I obtained Mary Jane Jones aged 23 yrs marr today to Alfred George James aged 24 yrs on 10th March 1947 in St Giles Wrexham, but I failed miserably to find any of the obituaries---of course there may of not been any in the Leader. However I am now in touch with Marian James, John Davids grandaughter and hope to share/swop info in the very near future. Thanks to all who contributed in any way---really appreciated Regards Tom

Hi, I did find Marian James also has a tree on Genes and she has allowed me access. The downside is it has a lot less info than the details Annette obtained from Ancestry. I am now awaiting a reply to my request for more info--Regards Tom

Hi, Can anyone find the marriage of Harold Hughes 1912-1997 to Lilian May Jones 1925-2012. I cannot supply any real help at this stage and hope they married locally. I have found the marriage of her sister Mary Jane Jones 1923-1957 to George Alfred James 1922-2006 in St Giles Mar Q 1947 so I will be off to the museum soon to hopefully find some more details. Thanks Tom
