William Henry is on the 1881 census in Llanllwni married to Mary with 3 children under 10 and 2 of them were born in Canada. RG11/5436 folio 43 pg 6. Later he's in Llanilar, Cardiganshire.

Thanks very much Osprey.
My closest blood relative is Richard Thomas who married Catherine Henrietta Jones, daughter of John and Jane. The couple emigrated to Kansas about 1871.
I shall go back to entering the Thomas family info compiled by Robert Moseley Bryce Thomas (1840-1937), but will add any more info that we find, of course.
I really appreciate your help.
Richard

Catherine in 1861

Tower Hill, Fishguard, Pembs RG9/4170 folio 5 pg 4
Catherine H Jones head 25 b. N Wales, Denbigh
William H brother 20 b. N Wales, Denbigh
Elizabeth George 19 servant b. Pembs, Milford

The marriage notices for Rev John Jones & Jane Hughes show his father to be the late Hugh Jones of Lampeter and hers to be the late John Hughes of Alltlwyd, the John Hughes who married them being her brother. The marriage was 11 March 1828.

The NLW holds records for the Hughes family of Alltlwyd, some details here
https://archiveswales.llgc.org.uk/anw/get_collection.php?coll_id=20301&inst_id=1&term=Llanrhystud%20%7C%20Wales
so according to this, Jane's brother was John 1805-1852, her parents John 1768-1821 and Jane Edwards, previously married to Thomas Evans of Llanilar. John's father was William, vicar of Llanilar who married Dorothy, daughter of Thomas Evans of Talsarn. There should be wills, but the NLW website is undergoing maintenance this evening.

Hi Kay,I wonder if you can help me find the birth of my 2XG-Grandfather in Llansantffraid,Gelli banks with his family Margaret (Lewis) son Llewelyn b.1836,daughter Mary b.1839.1941 census.

[Kay99]

Hi Isabell21

Generally it is better  to start a separate thread for a new query, but to clarify was the family surname Lewis and where does Llewelyn list his birth place as later census years??

I think this must be the family in 1841 living in Gelli Banks Llansaintffraid - Possibly should have realised the surname was Jones 

Llewelyn   Jones 30   Montgomeryshire, Wales
Margaret   Jones 25   
Llewelyn   Jones 5 Montgomeryshire, Wales
Mary   Jones  2
