Hello Kalena7
Welcome to Rootschat :)
I have spilt this into a new topic and hopefully someone will be able to help. In the meantime, please click modify and update your thread if you have mentioned anyone who is still living. We are not allowed to mention anyone still alive to protect against identity theft, etc
Do you know when and where Martha was born, when she married, and Mr Moore's first name? You can search free of charge for births, marriages, and deaths on freebmd:

I can see a marriage in 1916 of Martha Jones and Theophilus J Moore in Bedwellty district. Would this be the correct marriage?
Kind Regards

Hi Kalena,
As Martha and Theophilus were married in 1916 we can't search for them together in a census. I would be best to purchase their marriage certificate which would provide their ages, addresses, father's names and occupations. This would help you to trace the right families as there were quite a few Theophilus Moore's in that area. :)
Link to order certificates:
http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/
Bedwellty volume 11a page 157 is the certificate reference number
Once you have the certificate, post the details here and we'll try to find the family.
Kind Regards
Morgan

There's a Theophilus John Moore born Bedwellty district in 1897 that is a possibility, but you need the marriage certificate before you order a birth certificate.

Hello, I just found this post about Theophilus John Moore and Martha Jones. Martha was my grandfather's cousin. Martha was the daughter of Jonathan Francis Jones and Mary nee Stafford who were married in the Crickhowell Registration District Jan-Mar 1896 vol. 11B p. 131. They had 15 children including Martha who was their 2nd daughter. Martha was born at Abertillery in Apr-Jun 1898 vol. 11A p. 87. Her siblings were Elsie 1896, Tom 1900, Sarah 1902, Edith May 1903, Jonathan 1905, Elizabeth 1907, Arthur Francis 1909, Annie 1911, John 1913, Ronald David 1914, Marion 1917, Mary Dorothy 1919, Iris 1921, and Gwladys Irene 1923. I descend from Jonathan Francis's brother, William who married Louisa Godwin, their son Stanley was born in 1902 and he is my grandfather. I hope this is of interest to you, feel free to get in touch. Kind regards, Jon
