Hello, Osprey.

Thank you so much for having a look at my problem. This is right; Owen Jones was my 3rd g.gf. He married Margaret Evans. He was Isaac's father.

Best wishes,

Family History Beginners Board / Please help! Isaac Jones
« on: Tuesday 30 April 24 16:52 BST (UK)  »
Hi all,

I've hit a brick wall with research on my 2nd great-grandfather, Isaac (Moses?) Jones. Born 1861 in Llandrillo (Caernarvonshire) and died 1948 in Aled (Denbighshire).

His history is confusing.

The 1861 Welsh census names him and his twin sister as 'Moses and Martha Jones' (six days old when the census was recorded). However, every other census post-1861 lists their forenames as Isaac and Sarah Jones. I can't find any birth records to confirm the link between Moses - Isaac, Martha - Sarah. Perhaps they were middle names. I'm not sure.

I seem to be going around in circles. Sorry if this isn't clear, I'm new to family tree stuff! Any help is greatly appreciated.

Lou
