Hello list

I did a search on Ancestry for 1901. No sign of Ivor, just his step-sister who was born in Maesteg. but throat cancer cut her life short at age 30. The plot thickens. 

Clara N   Davies   1862   39   Teacher of Music   Cardiff   Glamorgan,   Wales   Head   St. John   

Marie N   William   1884   17   Pupil of Music      Maesteg   Glamorgan,   Wales   Visitor   St. John   

11 Catherderal Rd                                 
RG13; Piece: 4984; Folio: 25; Page: 41.                                  
Their adopted daughter    being Marie

Looking at Rootsweb I found 7 James Davies born 1841. I think I'm right in saying that prior to 1861 the registration district for Ebbw Vale was Abergavenny, after that date it became Bedwelty.
Hope that helps.

Hi Robyn

I know the message I am referencing is quite old, but I only came across this yesterday.

William Henry James Davies is my paternal grandmother's maternal grandfather (His daughter Lillie is my great grandmother). I notice that he is also an ancestor of yours; do you have any information on him that you are willing to share? He was already deceased when Lillie married in 1918 but that's all I know right now.

Jacqui,

I have replied on teh Semmens posting for Cornwall suggesting that we may be connected.  I have a lot of material on the Davies and Chilcotts courtesy of Davies relations in the UK.

Trudy (Gertrude) Coleman nee Davies is the same age as my mother 82 and we meet when she visited her brother Frederick Davies and his wife and family  in Brisbane 2 years ago. Sadly both Frederick and his wife have since died.

I can help if you let me know what information you are after.

I attended Sandringham primary school up unitl 1961 then Highett High.

I now live in Wodonga.

regards

Robyn
