Glamorganshire / Re: help finding HOPKIN SIMS 1777?
« on: Saturday 06 August 16 22:26 BST (UK) »
Thank all of you for this information. It turns out that I was one generation off in my calculations. My daughter-in-law is the one doing this research and I had to wait for them to visit from Phoenix to move forward.
Hopkin Sims (B-circa 1777) had, I believe, a son also named Hopkin (B-1814) in addition to four other siblings. This Hopkin Junior had a son by Gwenllian Davies named David (B-1841). This David, not to be confused with his uncle David, Married a Mary A. Winters and they had a son named John Cavassa Sims. John was born in 1858, married Alice Walters and must have been the one who immigrated to the U.S. We are still looking for records of that. John and Alice were my mother’s grandparents. My mother turns 100 next Wednesday and will be delighted with all this.
Again, thank you.
