Denbighshire / Re: Fox Hall Newydd. Henllan.
« on: Friday 21 March 25 20:11 GMT (UK)  »
I know I come late to this conversation… I am descended from Thomas and Ermine Roberts. They lived in the Game Keepers cottage on Foxhall Newydd farm. They are buried at the church in Henllan. Their headstones are leaning against the wall of the church.
When I visited the farm the gamekeepers cottage was totally renovated and lived in by a local. The farm was a diary farm and do know the farmers name somewhere. It was also owned at some point by a Roberts who actually stared in on the buses. Henllan is a lovey village with a great pub for lunch and friendly locals who are more than happy to share!
Thomas and Ermine had at 4 sons and unsure how many daughter because I’m going from memory. And as the sons get older, one son Edward moves out to be a games keeper at Crest(unsure where this is in Henllan) one son Robert moves to Canada and another son John marries someone from Bristol and moves to West derby
I’m descended from John and Isabella
John and Isabella’s first child Ermine is brought up by their grandparent’s Thomas and Ermine.

Hi againEveryone

Got a copy of Stephen's birth certificate and Susan has registered the birth herself and spelt  Smyth (Smith) and spelt McClean (McLean) I do know its them because Stephen was born at home and its the correct address.  34 Forster St.

How can I now get a copy of the marriage cert that kingskerswell has found...
Samuel Smyth and Susan McClean
Felt Street Salvation Army
Shankill.  Belfast 1st Jan 1894.

And secondly what other information can I now find out about them.   

Thanks karen
