Title: Pike/Williams
Post by: tweety on Tuesday 14 February 06 17:15 GMT (UK)

Me again...this time a harder quest.

I'm trying to find any records/trace of my father's grand parents.  They lived in Ystrad Road, Ystrad, Rhondda and I even remember going to the house.  My dad was brought up by them.

Their names were Robert Williams and Lily (Lilian?) Williams (nee Pike).  Lily only died in about 1974 but I can't seem to find any trace of either of them.  Both would have had a DoB around 1880

They had 3 kids - my Gran Ellen, and her brothers Spencer and  Edwin

Ah ha - I've found this one.

Thanks!  This is the first time I've managed to find anything with their names on it...my father's family is proving hard work.

Now at least I have a starting point.
