I am looking for Ann Jones who was born in 1829 in Ysbytty. Her father was John Jones. The information I have from a marriage cert is Ann was 34 when she married. Her father john Jones was an innholder and the residence given was Glan-nant. The marriage took place in Ysbytty Church in 1863.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am a bit stuck on this one.
Incidentally in the LDS 1881 census Anns age is put at 50 which would make her born in 1831 ?

Hi Janet
Are you still looking for this information or is she found?
kind regards, Arranroots ;)

Hello Janet,
I too am looking for an Anne Jones from Yspytty Ystywth, who was born circa 1828. She was the daughter of Thomas Jones, a miner. Have you perchance found any information about her in your research?
My findings have Anne Jones marrying Thomas Jones of Ystrad Meurig on 7 Mar 1849 at Ysbytty Ystwyth church. They lived near Ystrad Meurig in a cottage called Blaen Sychnant. She was still alive in 1901 for the census.
I've recently ordered the Ysbytty Ystwyth parish records from my local LDS family history center, so I'll keep an eye out for your Ann Jones when I am reviewing those records.
regards,
Chris

I've also got a Thomas Jones, a lead miner in Ysbytty Ystwyth, born in Tregaron in 1822. He married Anne Wood, nee Davies (she had been previously married to Thomas Wood).
Thomas' parents were Thomas and Hannah.
I've not been able to identify Anne's parents, nor her baptism. According to the census', she was born abt 1809 in Cwmystwyth.
I dare say the Parish Registers you've order only go up to 1837. If you have ordeer the other film (up to 1875), any chance of a look up?

I'll check and see next week on Thursday (my LDS night)... I don't rightly recall what the date ranges for the parish were, sometimes they go back considerably farther than 1837.

Hi Janet
I think I've found them in 1841......................
HO107/1374/13, Enum. dist. 8, p11, Parish of Yspytty Ystwyth. Address - Glannant, all surnames Jones, all born in county.
John 47, Tailor
Elinor, 48
Mary, 25
John, 15
Ann, 12
Elizabeth, 5
John, 3
Strange that there are 2 junior Johns but the younger may be a grandson, but look on the bright side, 3 John Jones at one address ;D
Hope it's of some use, cheers Dave ;)

My apologies for any copyrights violations!
I've confirmed Davierj's 1841 data with corresponding 1851 data.

Will do that later today Chris.

Hi Chris,
I think I've fiound your Jones in 1841 :)
HO107/1374/13, Enum Dist 8, p14. Parish of Yspytty Ystwyth. Address - Hafodgau. All surnames Jones, all born in county.
Thomas, 54 (I think), Lead Miner
Jane, 54,
John, 25, Lead miner
Jane, 27,
William, 17, Lead Miner
Elizabeth, 15
Joseph, 10
David, 8
The Thomas Jones, House Servant in 1851 would appear possibly not to be related.
The Thomas Jones/Jane Griffiths marriage, 13 Oct 1818, I checked for you on a different thread looks more and more promising.
Cheers Dave

Tonight was LDS night, although it was cut short by a raging blizzard here in Michigan! 6-8 inches of snow by 6:00 am tomorrow... :P
Anyhow, here's the good news:
From the Ysbytty Ystwyth parish records--
Marriage Records, 1815:
John Jones & Elinor Thomas, married by banns on 24th of November 1815
Baptism Records, 1828:
#203 - Anne, daughter of John & Elinor Jones of Glannant, baptized 23 November 1828
This should help Janet!
And, for my own gratification...
#188 - Anne, daughter of Thomas & Jane Jones of Gwaryrhos, baptized 10 February 1828
(Dave, this is even more evidence that you were right with Thomas Jones/Jane Griffith]
D ap D - the records I have don't include Cwmystwyth, but they do go to 1875. I will try to locate your Thomas Jones after the holidays, next time I can visit the LDS...
