Hi all, I'm looking for the Jones's of Fox Hall, just outside of Oswestry, in early censuses (or should that be censii?). They migrated to South Australia in 1854?, and I have not been able to verify there pre-migration existance in any records.
family history has it that I'm descended from Catherine Jones, born at Fox hall, Oswestry, Shropshire. I have two alternate dates 18/12/1833 and 29/1/1834. possibly one is a birth and the other a christening, or it may be two different people. Catherine's parents were John & Elizabeth Jones. That is the sum of my knowledge of the Joneses.
I actually visited Fox Hall in 1982, it is a few miles SE of Oswestry, near Aston Hall. Catherine married Thomas Edwards, who emigrated from Llanforda, Oswestry, in 1850, and I am their gt-gt-grandson on the male line.
All assistance greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Nudge
