Anglesey / Re: Llety, Rhoscolyn in the 1860's

Dragon T,

Thank you for your information re John Rowlands and Margaret Willimas, Llety Bach and their descendants, I concur with that information and the posting of Owen ap Anglesey 01/01/2015 @ 15:56 concerning their children.

Looking closer at John Rowlands, Llety bach, I have him b Trewalchmai 07/07/1793, d 09/12/1856 at Llety Bach, Rhoscolyn.  I am confident from Parish records that his parents were Edward Rowland 1771 - d 20/08/1799, Pumllog, Trewalchmai and Mary Pritchard b 3030/10/1774 Holyhead (possibly to a William Pritchard and a mother Grace)  d 12/04/1799 Pumllog, Trewalchmai.  Their children according to Parish records were John Rowlands, Llety bach, dates as above, Grace Rowland b 26/08/1795, Pumllog, Trewalchmai and William Rowlands b 30/05/1797 also Pumllog.

As both the parents, Edward Rowlands and Mary d 1799, the 3 children were left orphans. John Rowlands line has been developed extensively via Llety Bach, but I cannot find any trace of his siblings Grace nor William and would really appreciate your thoughts on both.

Thank you

Richard

Dragon T,

Your reply is very much valued, this not the John Rowlands that I have been searching for and your response has saved and will save me considerable time going up the wrong alleyway.

You did respond to myself and others in another thread some time ago and your input was very very useful concerning a Rowlands family at Llety Bach, Rhoscolyn. Your input has helped me to double that tree in size and it now has about 1250 people in it.   Now, after considering your response, if I may, I will post another message on that Llety Bach thread and would very much value your thoughts.

Appreciated, diolch.

Richard Rowlands

Dragon T,

I know this thread dates back a while but can you remember anything about the Rowlands family of Elizabeth?  In particular where she was born and where her father John lived when Elizabeth was married.

Thank you

Richard Rowlands

Susan,

Nice to hear from you earlier on, sorry it was short and sweet, I'm overloading here but wish more people in the Rowlands line would come on roots.
You should be able to get more from the 1901 Census for John Williams and hopefully take that line back a long way. Happy hunting. There are a couple of others interested in this line and they are very good and very helpful if you need anything.  On the lighter side, whatever Gill tells you about me, well, I didn't do half of it. But we both like a good leg pull, you should know what I mean.  :) :)
Best wishes, keep in touch.

Susan,

I'm in the middle of something here so this will be a quick reply. John married Mary 26/11/1902 at Hhead Register Office, if you want the Registrar's ref for a certificate its Anglesey West 16,5,9.  John's father was also John Williams, Trefadog, Llanfaethlu. Mary's 2nd husband was Trevor Owen b 03/03/1897 Beaumaris 38,14,66 address on wedding day was 1 Cae Mawr Llanddaniel Fab,(son of Thomas Owen and Ann Owen) One of their children was Ann Jane Owen b 02/08/1919 Hen Gapel Llanddaniel who married Robert Hughes Lewis b 26/09/1915, one of their children is Gillian who is Taffy on this thread and lives in Australia. There is more and I'm sure Gillian and BerylWyn will be more than delighted to join in this discussion and may well respond as well as they have more detail info than I have. I think Ann Jane Owen and my dad were cousins so I'm interested in what ur interested in. Can you tell which Lewis ur helping out? Must dash but will check this site later.

Gillian,

This is a surprise, didn't expect you to pop up here but very glad you did. Firstly there are two Emlyn's in the family. The eldest one is the one you remember, Uncle Owie's son who now lives in Wrexham, has two brothers, Wyn who worked in MEM in Holyhead and Alun who runs a garage in Bryngwran. The other Emlyn is me, Richard Emlyn, Dad Lewis and Mother Maggie, lived in Bodffordd and Llangefni, I had an insurance business in Holyhead at the bottom of Holborn Road round the corner from your mum and dad in Rhosygaer Ave, your mum called in to see me almost every morning for 5mins to check if all was well, she was a real 'cymeriad' and always cheerful. Your dad and my dad kept cage birds and I remember calling at Llys y Gwynt when both would talk for endless hours about 'Nicos' and Canaries. There is more I could say to jog your memory but lets see if you remember yourself first.   I only found Beryl about 2 months ago via here. Beryl has done a lot of research, more than me but so far we seem to agree and all that we have found plus there are some fascinating possibilities that we need to look at. I'm sure between us we can supply you with quite a lot of info that will save you lots of time. And by the way, do you remember Kenneth, I found him living around 25 miles away from Beryl on the South coast.

Evening Berylwyn,

Nice to read your post, I have my basic tree written down neatly, I would certainly like to compare research with you since nobody else in the family has done this work. The main tree is as per previous post on this thred but I have at least 50 other names of descendants of members of this main tree. I found that my daughter worked with her 2nd cousin but had no idea until she just casually happened to look at some of my scribblings !!!!  I have not seen a Beryl Wyn in there yet !!!

I have dates of birth and register office certificate numbers for many in the tree. There is a possibility of one Rowlands having emigrated to America and a possible link to the Rowlands in Liverpool who built the Welsh Streets in Toxteth. There are Rowlands in Holyhead but I havn't yet cracked that line, yet.

There's also a Rowlands who married a Bulkeley, who was related to John of Gaunt who was related to Richard 3rd. There is another one who was born at Plas Penmynydd and possibly related to Henry 8th.  The thought of being related to a Plantaganet king and a Tudor king, even though through marrige, is fascinating and of course until proven, is just a theory and only a theory. It would make a great story if true. Also, the name Rowlands does not appear as a written word until 1067, which suggests that we have French blood. There are a number of Lewis's in the tree, Lewis being the French Louie of course.

Can I please post my main tree to you or meet to discuss? I live on Anglesey.

Thanks for reponding.

Richard Emlyn

Aled,

I have now been able to write down the part of the tree that is relevant to me i.e John Rowland and Margaret Williams and their 9 children. One of their children, Edward and his wife Sarah and their 5 children. One of Edward and Sarah's children Lewis and his wife Margaret Jones and their 8 children including my grandfather Richard who married a Mary Jones. So I have Great Great Great Grandparents now and all children (unless more turn up) right through to me. Thanks for your input.

So where do you link in?   Are John and Margaret ur GGG Grandparents as well - making us cousins of some description?  Are you aware of any cousins of yours living in Valley?  Last but not least - I'm guessing (wild guess based on a hunch more than logic I suppose) that u have one letter less than I have in your surname and u live with the Prime Minister?

Dragon T.
The names,dates and addresses you quote are very much in line with what I have but you have included additional material which I did not have and I am appreciative. According to a relative that I have spoken to briefly on the phone this evening, the information regarding the more recent obituaries particularly the address at time of death are known to him as being family addresses. It apprears that we are certainly on the right trail and that you clearly have some expertise in this business!!
I will need now to find time to study all the information.
Thank you
RR
