Griffiths - Mitchel Troy - 18th Century

[Regorian]

Bryan is it?, hope you're well and enjoying life. The Hannah Coley link back to Worcester failed. The experts on here really delved into it. A great pity because three different people on Familysearch had submitted links between John and Hannah (Coley) Griffiths from Worcester to Mitchel Troy. Familysearch no longer allows PM's between members, so I couldn't contact them and ask for their sources and proofs.

Monfamilies had BT's online for each parish but I'm not sure at all whether they still are. I did peruse the Monmouth original registers looking for Griffiths's but didn't find anything apart from 'Michael's' burial if that was him. This was up to 20 years ago, so probably should be revisited, except I don't go that far these days.

I did a quick online search yesterday but couldn't find any other children of Michael Griffiths and Elizabeth, in Monmouth or elsewhere. I guess we will just have to wait and see if any new information comes up; when I get a chance I will try to go back to the Gloucester Record Office for one final check there but it seems we will have to resign ourselves to the fact that the late 18th Century record keeping was simply not that good for the general population.

Actually, All Saints Newland covered a wide area and the records were amongst the best. The vicar/rector at the time even produced an index book for 18th Century+. I copied all the Griffiths's out and no Michael and Elizabeth's I'm afraid. That would cover the nearest Gloucestershire side of the County line with Monmouthshire. I have also looked at Penallt, the other relevant parish in Mon.
