Hello
Further to my post on the connection of the Davies's with the Wimbush family ie-William Davies marries Mary Wimbush and the Davies connection in Canada. I have made contact with the Davies decendants in Vancouver BC Canada, only this week after a lot of searching. He has passed my e-mail onto his father and brothers and I am hoping I get a reply. Really excited about this breakthrough. I know it,s not the same line of decendants from the Wimbushes just another branch
I seem to have the general info about the Wimbushes as most of you.

Hi Kia and Tim I have concentrated on the Davies connection to the Wimbushes Which is via William Davies married to Mary Wimbush 1841 Mary's parents are Samuel and Elisabeth Wimbush. Her siblings are Martin 1835, Samuel 1844 and Betty 1849. Mary's children are Alice 1864, Rose 1869, William1871 and Herbert 1878. Herbert is my Grandfather and he emigrated to Canada with his wife Henrietta Litchfield 1877 and some children Doris1904 , Leslie 1906, Hilda1911, Wilfrid1912. in 1930. My father Herbert 1917 was left in England and was killed in WW2. I knew nothing of the family until I started tracing the family tree. I can go back another two generations on the Davies side and forward two generations of the Davies side in Canada, although this is still being researched. I am trying to make contact with any living relatives there. Betty Wimbush1849 married Patrick Connaughton1852 and had Patrick 1881, John 1883, Herbert1885 Edward1888 and Michael1890. Patrick 1881 married Mary Hannah Dalton. Samuel Wimbush1844 married Alice and had five children. I have more information  on these. ( not a lot)   Moston

Hello Tim As far as I can get back to which is the 1780's there is no connection to Wales. They were all born in Manchester. I have had a hell of a job tracing the Davies's not having had much to go on and the fact that Davies is a very common name. I have cross referenced them as far as I can and I am satisfied that I have got the correct line. I am mov ing forward now to trace them in Vancouver Canada, it may take some time but I will keep you informed
