G'day and thanks for getting in touch. It isn't a book of certificates, it is personal to the Davies family. I can only say that is a book owned by the Davies family of long ago. I want to make sure that the correct family receives it back. they will be over the moon if they can give us the correct identifying information, then we will be more than happy to make sure it gets back to them.

Sorry misunderstanding, what I meant is that there are researchersfor a Morgan Davies as some are or have been NZSG members.
When you are a member you donate certificates you have to a members collection. i was just trying to confirm whether it would have been this pre 1900 period and that it wasn't a newer book

Hi There,
This thread is super interesting. I am so sorry that I have not been on this site for too long. Is there any chance that this information is still available as I am definitely still wanting to track down how my Morgan Davies got to NZ and where in Wales he came from.

Regards
Darren

Hi Darren, and welcome to RootsChat  :)

The original poster has not been on the forum since March 2021 so may not respond to your post.

In the meantime I can suggest that you reply twice more to this topic (just a smiley icon in each will be fine) and you need three posts to activate your Personal Message facility). Then you can send and receive messages and exchange information in private.

With that in mind, I will need to delete your email, I'm sorry, as the forum takes efforts to protect its members from spam and other online abuses like identity theft.

I hope the original poster or other family researchers make contact with you.

Regards,

Hi Darren,

In case we can help, whayt can you tell us about your Morgan Davies? Date and place of birth, date of likely emigration, any marriage, occupation etc.)

I have just searched Papers Past for 'morgan davies' (1855-1880) and found twenty one articles.
https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers

I recommend that you try the same search.

Regards,

Spades

Hello again

Not sure if you are aware of the contents of the "trees" published at the ancestry.com website for Morgan DAVIS and his wife Emma North MUMFORD ??   
(The names of the supposed parents of Morgan DAVIS, along with his birthplace, are given in at least one of the trees.)
