Title: Llanwrst Jones baptism look up circa 1833-1834 baptism
Post by: Carybeth on Sunday 19 April 20 00:13 BST (UK)
My 2 x great grandmother Elizabeth Jones was born in Llanwrst circa 1833-1834. Her father is down as John Jones (a plumber) on her 1862 marriage certificate.
I am looking for a baptism for her.
I know this is a common surname but if anyone can help, it would be appreciated, thank you.

This might give you some idea where to start the search:

Some of the churches may not have been around in 1833/34 so they can obviously be immediately dismissed.

I had a quick look after you posted but couldn't be really sure. I did find a non-conformist one but father John was a labourer.

I'll do some more checks.

Did she marry in a C of E/Wales Church?

Hi, thanks for getting back to me. Elizabeth married my 2 x great grandfather in a C of E church when she went to live in Liverpool. Thank you.

There's this one but no others with a father John that I can see at 

1835 - Llanrwst Wesleyan circuit

Elizabeth d of John Jones, labourer,  and Ann Jones  (mistakenly?? written as Jane Williams*, spinster  in the former name and mar status column) of Tai Rhes, Llanrwst. Mother resident at Llanrwst at marriage.
* the entry above was a Jane!!

This looks like their marriage, just in case it's yours:

26 August 1926 . Capel Garmon
Anne Williams of Llanrwst and John Jones of Gwytherin by license. Witnesses - John Jones and Margaret Jones

Hi, I don't think its my Elizabeth, her father was definitely a plumber. I think she may have had a brother called Owen but no solid evidence.

Have you found her on any of the censuses with her parents?
Title: Re: Llanwrst Jones baptism look up circa 1833-1834 baptism
Post by: Gadget on Monday 20 April 20 22:05 BST (UK)
There is an online tree which has Elizabeth's parents as John  Jones (1805 -?) and Elizabeth Lloyd (1806-?)  but no other information on them apart from info about their children Elizabeth and Owen.

Census information for Elizabeth (m John Hughes) starts at 1871.

Is this yours?

There is an interesting family on the 1841 that might be worth investigating:

Scotland Street, Llanrwst
HO107/1403/19/24/6
Elizabeth Jones, 35, widow, not born county
Elizabeth, 6, born county
Owen, 4, born county

A baptism that would fit for Owen

9 October 1836
Tabernacle Cogregational Church, Llanrwst
Owen Lloyd Jones son of John Jones and Elizabeth LLoyd
