Next door? Aren't they all in the same house? Thomas Jones is not listed, and Richard died in 1855. In the 1850 census for Shenango Twp., Lawrence, Pa., page 154, are:

Richard Grundy 70
Margaret Grundy 60
Mary Grundy 30
Thomas Grundy 5
Richard Grundy 2
John Grundy 18
Richard Grundy 16
James Grundy 14

all born in England. Where is Thomas Jones Senior, I wonder? He's missed two census counts in a row since being counted in Wales in 1841. In the 1860 Federal census another problem is James,24, and Mary, 23. They married within a year of the census. But the James I'm looking for has a child with Bridget Dolan from Ireland, Richard Edward, in either 1860 or 1861. But those problems are all on this side of the water. Clearly Mary Grundy married Thomas Jones in Wales, then came to the US with her folks, and she is still having kids named Jones, so there is a Jones connection right here. But who do they come from in Wales?
