Hi Gladys
 0nly Ann Rees I could find to fit in 1871 was :
John Rees  42yrs    Born breconshire 1829
Ann Rees    29yrs      "    Cardiganshire  1824
Mary E  Rees   8yrs    "    Breconshire     1865
There were living at Waunlygan, Brynmawr Llaneely Hill
On the 1881 Census if you notice Ann`s mother is Jane
Thomas Widow aged 70 yrs born in Cardigan
Don`t know what happened to Mary but she would have
been 18yrs in 1881 could have married. no James on this Census he would have been 2yrs if 1869 birthdate correct.

Hello,

I am totally new to rootschat so I hope I am doing this correctly.  I have seen your correspondence concerning the Heron and Rees families of Washington in the 1890's to the early 1900's. I am related to the Rees family of Sangamon County, Illinois, and believe that your Rees line and mine are connected. Here is what I know:
My great-grandmother was Delilah Rees who was born in 1863 in Monmouthshire, Wales. She, along with her father, Lewis James Rees (sometimes referred to as James Lewis), mother, Esther Davis, and siblings immigrated in about 1871. They ended up in Dawson, Sangamon County, Illinois. There, Delilah married William Baugh in 1862. William and Deliliah's son was Franklin Squire Baugh, the same Frank who is with John Rees in the 1900 census. Franklin's first wife was Mary Heron, sister to Isabella Heron. So.....we have sisters marrying possible cousins. Do you know much about the parents of John Rees?  I have to assume that John and Delilah Rees' fathers were "connected" in some way. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, again, Gladys,

I am desperately trying to get "into" rootschat so I can communicate with you. Although this does not answer your request, I have read other postings of yours and know you are researching Mary Dowie. I just came across the following information when researching the first wife of my great-grandfather's brother. The wife was Mary Heron who married Franklin Squire Baugh in Illinois in the 1890's before moving to Washington State. Mary died very quickly after they arrived in Wa:  JunBurial:
Foresters Cemetery (Roslyn)

shington. It appears she was related to the "Dowie" woman you are researching. HOpe this helps.......

Hi,Gladys,

I am fairly new to this , so I hope you get this response. I replied to yoyr posts about the Rees
Heron,and Dowie line. My Rees line is somehow connected to John Rees who was birn about 1870 in Wales. John married Isabelle Heron in the late 1890's in Sangamon County, Illinois. John and Isabelle moced to Kittitas County,Washington and are there in the 1900 census. Living in their household is Frank Baugh whose wife, Mary, has died at only 27 years of age.  Mary was a sister to Isabelle. Frank Baugh's mither was born Delilah Rees in Monmouthshire, Wales. I have been able to find the connection between Delilah and John Rees.  I assume they are cousins, but i have not been able to prove this.  I did find death information for John Rees today on ancestry.com. His death info lists his parents as James Rees and Ann Thomas.  Does any of this sound familiar?r

Hello Vickie,  I haven`t done any researching on any of my familys for quite some time so i must get cracking again.   I will have to look up at my information on the Rees family and see where i can start again.        We have been in touch before but i can`t remember what family we had connected.   Regards Gladys. PS.
Thank you for your information which is a good help. Gladys.
