Searching for JONES, WILLIAMS & BROWN families (General)
My name is Tony Goode I am 73 years of age and live in Adelaide South Australia.
During the second world war I lived at Littledean for five years and had have wonderful memories of the forest and playing with friends...the Murrels, the Brains and others.
I am related to George Henry Jones the past owner of Bixdale mine and his wife Alice Elizabeth Jones (nee Brown). I know that their daughter Alice Elizabeth, married Frank Robert Williams of the Red and White Bus Services Lt. in 1937 and had a daughter Barbara Williams who would be a relative of mine. Looking at an old photo taken at Eastdean school in 1954 I noticed a girl no.44 in row 7 named Barbara Williams and I can't help thiking she could be my relative.
I am trying to compile my family tree for myself and my family here in Australia and I would be most grateful if Barbara Williams or anyone else who can help me would contact me by e.mail
Thank you, Tony Goode.

Alice Elizabeth BROWN 1888 Cinderford
by hollycat , Friday, March 06, 2009, 07:09 (5813 days ago) @ slowhands
The Alice Elizabeth Brown who married George Henry Jones in 1906 was the daughter of Tom Brown and Frances Carter Brown (nee Hunter). Tom Brown died aged 26 and Frances went on to marry Charles Goode. Alice took her new stepfather's surname in the 1891 and 1901 censuses, so was known as Alice Goode. She reverted to her birth name when she married George Henry Jones, so the register states that Alice Brown married George Henry Jones. Alice was the half-sister of my grandmother, Maud Goode.
