Death of Catherine Rowlands
« on: Monday 25 May 15 07:04 BST (UK) »
Dear All
It's a while since my last posting. But I wonder if all you clever, generous people out there could help me find a Catherine Rowlands' death around 1901. She was born a twin to my husband's grandfather in 1883 in Talysarn, Dyffryn Nantlle. I have his birth certificate. She is on the 1901 census living in Cloddfa Goed, Talysarn. They are quarry cottages. Then she is on the 1911 census living on Penbryn Madog Farm, Talysarn. Family stories say that she died when she was 18 but I cannot find a record of her death. Of course she could have married first which would be a problem. Thank you for your time. Eleri

If she died around 1901 then she wouldn't be on the 1911 census  :-\

It might be just a story and she married and lived to a ripe old age!  Who were her parents?

Is the twin Evan John and the parents John & Mary?

If so there is a tree with death for Catherine in 1910 age 26 but I don't see a matching entry for her unless she was married as you suggest.

There are marriages in 1902/1906 to spouse Roberts or Williams/Hughes in Carnarvon district (if that's the correct district) to cross check deaths with.

Thank you both so much. Yes I didn't think that one out did I?

I will do some work on that 1926 one. You are right about her parents and also her twin brother. He was my husband's grandfather. I just felt sad about her short life and felt I wanted her brother's descendants to know something about her.
Thank you

Hi
If she was on 1911 Census, a possible marriage to Richard Jones at Eglwys Peblig Sant, Caernarfon, last quarter of 1911. Catherine in Free BMD,  Catherine J in North Wales BMD.
Parish Registers for the Church at Caernarfon Archives. I've moved away from Caernarfon area and have no plans at the moment to go to Caernarfon.

Do you have an ancestry sub ? there is a tree going down to present day for Catherine's brother's descendants ? this one has her death in 1910 aged 26 ? perhaps you could contact the owner

I gave a subscription to Find my Past but haven't seen anything on that. But my cousin is with Ancestry so I shall ask her to help. Thank you so much. You're all so generous with your time.
