Montgomeryshire Lookup Requests / Re: 1841 Census - Look up for Hugh & Jane REES
« on: Tuesday 06 October 09 21:10 BST (UK)  »
Warwick,
Many thanks for the information. I have just ordered the transcriptions for Garthbeibio for the years prior to 1760 from the MFHS which will help me. I must get over to Aberystwyth soon. I have been to Llanymawddwy just across the county line in Merionmouthshire but I did not know then of the Garthbeibio connection.
Regards

Andy

Warwick,
Many thanks to your PM to me, I have only just started on Rootschat and this is only my 2nd posting so as yet I cannot reply to you with a PM.
Regarding our common ancestry:
Evan Rees (brother of your Hugh) married Jane Jones in 1803 in Garthbeibio. They had 6 children (that I have found)- John 1803, Evan 1804, Richard 1809, Rees 1810, Jane 1812 and Mary 1817.
Mary who is my direct line was born in Llanymawddwy in Merionmouthshire. There she married Richard Roberts. Regarding Evan and Hugh's parents I have John Rees (1749-1806) and Jane Humphreys (1752-1801). Johns parents being Rees Jones and Mary Evans.
I have only just really started researching this line. The information comes from the Montgomeryshire FHS transcriptions of the Garthbeibio PR's and I have not confirmed anything yet.
I hope this helps.

Hi Judybal,
I do not know if you have had an answer yet, but if not then the connection is easy.
Harry Mortimer married Margaret Rees d of Hugh Rees 1797-1861 of Garthbeibio. Hugh is the brother of my GGG Gf Evan Rees b1773. Obviously if you have pictures of Rees' by H Mortimer then I wonder if any first names are given or any other information.

Regards

Andy
