Hi,
Any leads on Benjamin Williams b 1817 Llanegwad Carmarthenshire or Llanwrtyd Breconshire? Father David William(s) mother Ann Jones married ca. 1808 at Calvinistic Chapel near Llwynfortune. he had a brother Ebenezer baptised Bethel Llanwrtyd 1810.
The family emigrated to America about 1834.

Thanks
Llanfi

You ask for leads, what exactly are you after. 

It is better if you don't post the same request on two boards as it can mean we are giving you information others have already found

Hi,
Your data is very complete and I appreciate your help..... However ..........
It turns out that Benjamin's Father was Thomas Williams and His Mother was Ann Jones, from Wales, according to a death certificate recently posted on https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/LCTR-NL2
It seems I was wrong about David Williams and Anne Jones as parents of Benjamin.
The Death certificate clearly shows Ann not Anne Jones.
I have found a marriage between Thomas Williams and Ann Jones in Llanfawr Merionethshire 1814 on FindMyPast. 1814 is consistent with Benjamin born 1818. But Ebenezer is too early. There are other Thomas Williams married to Anne Jones around and about on FindMyPast, so I think I have to locate Ebenezer or Benjamin, but at least we have Benjamin's date of birth ( not Baptism!) as November 8 1818...
Cheers,
Llanfi
