It could well be her. I can't find a marriage bond for Thomas Edwards and Anne Williams, that may have helped.
By the way I can confirm that Elizabeth Griffith was born at Hafod y Wern Llanfihangel y Traethau in 1847 to Robert and Jane Griffith nee Williams. This backs up the will of William Williams of Rhosgill in 1847 which states that his grandsons Robert and John Edwards (sons of Jane by her first marriage to Richard Edwards) were living at Hafod Penrhyndeudraeth at the time.
What is interesting here is that the daughter is Catherine at Llys Patric in 1851 and Elizabeth in Bangor High Street in 1861. Robert Griffith and all three daughters, Laura, Jane and Elizabeth are in Bangor High Street (255 from his will in 1868) and Robert is widowed. I can't find a burial for Jane in Abererch or Llanarmon so I think she may have died in Bangor.

Only a minor point but FindMyPast,at least,certainly has Elizabeth in both the 1851 and 1861 censuses.
Is there any key issue/relationship that still needs resolving?

You're right, I'm seeing too many names!!

I think I'm pretty relaxed about the relationships now. Over time I'll try and find some deaths that are missing such as Jane Williams born 1803 who married Richard Edwards and then Robert Griffith.it looks like she died between 1851 and 1861. And I'll do bit of tidying up next time I'm in the County Archives.

Thanks for all your help.


regards

Hello.  I stumbled across some messages you posted on Rootschat some years ago.  My main area of interest is John Jones Talysarn, and his descendants and ancestors. I wonder if you have made any further progress over the years? 

I think I am connected to Hedd Moelwynog via my great great grandfather on my mother's side.  Then via Angharad James.  But I am keen to prove the link with hard evidence.

Would be grateful for any pointers.

Hello Dewi

I'm not related to John Jones Talysarn and I have not done any work on his blood family. Frances Edwards the wife of John Jones Talysarn had a brother called Richard Edwards. Richard Edwards married Jane Williams (born 1803 and died between 1851 and 1861) of Rhosgill Fawr, Llanarmon who was a first cousin of my great*3 grandfather, Robert Owen of Ty Tan y Fron Uwchmynydd Aberdaron (1770-1859).

I'm sorry I have not done any work on the family of John Jones Talysarn. I've done a little bit of work on the family of Frances Edwards.

I am researching my great, great, great, great grandfather Rev John Jones of Talysarn.
I have quite a comprehensive family tree of his ancestors.
I know he had 8 children but have no details of any descendants of those. I only have my grandmothers family.
(My grandmother descending from his daughter Anne who married Rev Robert Owen.)
If anyone has info please let me know.
