Title: David Jones - Bigamist
Post by: Dafydd Hywel on Friday 16 August 24 22:06 BST (UK)
I'm trying to find information about David Jones who was born in Q1 1888 Treorchy.  He was a Bigamist

The last record I have was in 1921 where he was still single.  His marriages must have happened after this date, or he did not record that he was married prior to this.

More information needed .

What was his father's name and their professions

Do you have a baptism for him to get exact birth date .?

It's hard to look for JONES .

Where does your information about him being a bigamist come from .?
Court records or newspaper articles could be the place to look

Presume you know the name of one wife?
What are the details of that marriage?

He was 33 in 1921 - How is he connected to you?  Are you descended from one of his children?

If so - please give full details of that child - but only if the child is now deceased

If there were no children - are you connected to one of the women he married?  If so - please give their details

Jones is probably the most common surname in Wales so we need a lot more info

Do you have his birth cert showing his full birthdate?  A birth in the March qtr can mean a late 1887 birth registered after Christmas?  Knowing his full birthdate may help to find him on the 1939 register

He was a Bigamist

How many times?

What occupation did he have on the records you have of him?

As others have said more information is needed to be able to assist.
