Title: Jacob and Hannah/Anna Maria Thomas
Post by: rachelburnley on Wednesday 25 May 22 17:40 BST (UK)
My mother and i are coming to Mountain Ash in June.
We are visiting Aberffrwd cemetery to see Jacob's grave, we have found the receipt for the grave, died March 1921.
We are unable to find Hannah/Anna Maria who we think died Apr-June 1921. Unable to find more Info.
We know their eldest daughter Laura married Alfred Sale.
their eldest son was my great grandfather, william Henry.
John, in 1911 census was with the family and down as married. We think his grandson was called Raymond as mum remember her dad saying his cousin named the son after him.
Jacob married elizabeth evans and they had Lorraine - who my mum remembers visiting. Lived at the triangle.
Any ideas where to look for more information or anyone who knows anything greatly appreciated.

Do you have Jacob’s death certificate which might say if he was a widower. Wouldn’t they be buried together? Whoever registered the death might help too, to give a timeframe. Have you looked on the 1921 census?

Who are John, Jacob and Elizabeth Evans?

You could contact the council who manage the cemetery where Jacob is buried and see if they can help.

Hi

Your post is confusing as you don't give surnames so we don't know whether you are talking about children of Jacob & Elizabeth

You don't give any birthyears

Is this Jacob's death reg so we know his age?  What date in March did he die?

Deaths March qtr  1921
THOMAS    Jacob    79    Pontypridd    11a    660

Did he have a son Arthur born around 1875?  If so - Jacob was a widower in 1911.  If that is the right 1911 entry - Jacob was born Walwyns Castle Pembrokeshire

Hannah/Anna Maria who?  No surname or age given?  What is her connection to Jacob?

We know their eldest daughter Laura married Alfred Sale.

They do not have a daughter Laura and there is no marriage of an Alfred Sale to a Laura Thomas so whose daughter are you referring to?

Possible death for Maria

If that is the right census with Laura then he can't be the Pontypridd death & must be the 73yr old died March qtr 1921 RD Newtown Monmouthshire (posted on Glamorgan board)

Rachel

Can you clarify how old Jacob was when he died & what was his address?

Sorry Carole,
thought the post title was obvious.
the surname was Thomas. Jacob the father (born 1841, cornwall) died april 1921, buried in abwefford cemetry, mountain ash. I think his wife hannah/ann maria nee Mannell (born 1847, cornwall) died april 1921.
Jacob and Hannah/Anna Maria has 2 daughters (Laura & Eliza), 3 sons (William, John & Jacob) and 3 other children who born and died between censuses.
Laura Jane (1870 -1915) married Alfred Sales, had 8 children.
William Henry (1871-1948) my great great grandfather.
Eliza Annie (born 1882, died 1894)
John (born Oct-dec 1879, Ebbw Vale) married between 1901-1911 not sure who. Think his grandson was called Raymond.
Jacob the son (born 2 Oct 1887, Monmouthshire) married Elizabeth Evans (1893-1970). Had one daughter Lorraine (1919-1975).

Jacob the father buried with daughter and grandson plus a Mary Ann Thomas buried 20-4-1912 (maybe a daughter)
Unsure where Jacob's wife is buried.
Unsure who John married or when died/buried.
Unsure where Jacob the son or his wife is buried or their daughter.
Unsure where daughter Eliza Annie is buried.
