Glamorganshire Lookup Requests / Re: Look up for Burial/Grave Ferndale area please
« on: Tuesday 29 November 11 14:37 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Brian,

Yes, what a coincidence that the families were living in the same street.  So what grave No. is Margaret Ann Folken who we now believe to be Margaret Ann Faulkner buried in, is it H331 with Gwenllian Rees or H33 with her husband Charles? Just to get my facts right.

What library did you get the information from on address at time of death?  I did read somewhere last night that the original burial records were at Treorchy Library.

I will have to contact relatives of Ann Thomas the wife of Lleyshon Rees to see if there is any connection with her family to Margaret Ann Evans that they know of.

Thank you once again for all your hard work and time.

Best Wishes
Lainey

Hi Brian,

Thanks for that, your help is much appreciated.

I will tell you what I suspect and know.  Gwenllian Rees lived with her youngest son Lleyshon and his wife Ann Thomas.  As I previously said Margaret Roache would have been Gwenllian's daughter who was married to a William Roache.  Lleyson's wife Ann was the daughter of a Thomas Thomas and a Barbara Evans. Now this Margaret Ann Folken could have been a relation of Barbara Evans.  I have found a marriage of a Charles Faulkner to a Margaret Ann Evans at Swansea in 1899 and a death for a Margaret Ann Faulkner which could have been mis-spelt as Folken registered at Pontypridd in the last quarter of 1908.
I then looked at the 1901 census and found a Chas Faulkner married to a M A faulkner age given as 25 living at Primrose Street, Ystradfodwg.  It seems likely that this M A Faulkner is the Margaret Ann Folken on the burial register for Trealaw

Best Wishes

Hi Brian,
Thank you ever so much for looking for me.  Gwenllian had a daughter Margaret whose married name was Roache, but her age would have been 38 rather than 33.  It looks like it is the right one and that Margaret's age has been mis-transcribed.  Although I don't know who the other person Margaret Ann Folken is.  I have looked at the BMD and can not even find a death registered for a Margaret Ann Folken in 1908, perhaps her last name has been mis-transcribed, but will hopefully find out who this person is at some point.
Thanks again, I appreciate what you have done for me very much.
Best wishes

Hi Brian,
Thank you ever so much.  I think that will be the right one, even though it gives the age of 82, she was actually 83 a few weeks prior to her death.
I don't mean to take advantage of you, but do you happen to know if anyone else is in the same grave or if she is buried on her own.  Her husband is buried in Aberdare so I know he is not with her.
Kind Regards and Best Wishes

Hi Romilly,
Yes, there is a Probate Office in Cardiff, although I do not know whether you can order wills from there.  The address for Cardiff is:
Cardiff Probate Registry Office, 3rd Floor Cardiff Magistrates Court, Fitzalan Place, Cardiff South Wales, Wales CF24 0RZ
Tel. No: 02920 474373
I hope this is of some help to you.
Good Luck.
