Thank you this seems to be my family lineage. And a lot more than we expected!Thanks for you help its much appreciated.

At least two contenders for spouse:

Jones, married 1900 Bedwelty and Thomas q1 1901 Bedwelty. Any clues, or order the certs before the price rise?

Cheers
Bob (half first cousin)

On second thoughts, after looking at the huge number of Margaret Ann Thomases and Joneses lurking around Bedwelty, I'll not try to open that box! (yet)

We have an obituary notice for John Morgan with numerous people listed. I can confirm that the Margaret A Jones highlighted is my Grandmother. This is confirmed by the presence of her brothers Lewis, Tom and David. Thank you very much for all your help.
