Francis & Richards of Montgomeryshire

[KMcKenzie]

Hello,

I'm looking to delve deeper into my Welsh Roots - but at the moment have hit one heck of a brick wall.
 
My Great Great Great Grandfather was Evan Francis. He was born around 1808 - 1811 and according to Census records he was born in Llangadfan. He died in 1897 in the Parish of Cemmes, Montgomeryshire. He Married Anne Richards on 6 April 1850 and Evan's Father is given as David Francis

(Anne was born around 1824 in Cemmes the Daughter of John Richards and Anne who's maiden name is possibly Jones).

If anyone could tell me how i could find more information on the parents and siblings of Evan Francis and Anne Richards i would be very grateful as they are as far back as i can go at the moment.

Many thanks,

Keelan McKenzie

Hi keelan, somebody on Ancestry has a tree listing Evans father as David born 1788. There is no further information that you have not listed.
However Anne Richards parents are listed as John Richards 1787 born Cemmes, Montgomeryshire and Ann Jones 1781-1861 born Towyn, Merionethshire. No siblings are posted

Skewy.

Most parish records up to 1837 for Montgomryshire are on FindMyPast. If you can't find them, they may have been non-conformist. For NC records try the IGI, I think they have an index to all the records ava. at The Genealogist.
