	I googled Alfred Penry Evans ......... and got only 1 response. An article from The Argus (Melbourne), dated 28 December 1928. You MUST read the actual newspaper artcile as the elctronic transcriptio is the pits!! In it is says that Alfred is the son of the Rev Tonas Penry Evans, a Welsh preacher and lecturer. It sayss that Alfred married a daughter of Alderman W>H> Mathias of Tynyeymmor Hall, Rhondda Valley in 1904 so two more clues!! sylvia

	No freebmd records for Thomas Penry Evans but there are several Thomas Evans registered in 1839 in Llandilofawr , the registration district that includes Llanegwad, where he said he was born on the censuses Births Mar 1839 (>99%) Evans Thomas Llandilofawr 26 501 Births Jun 1839 (>99%) Evans Thomas Llandilofawr 26 530 Evans Thomas Llandilofawr 26 * Births Dec 1839 (>99%) EVANS Thomas Llandilofawr 26 470 Births Mar 1840 (>99%) Evans Thomas Llandilofawr 26 519 I hope he isn't like my husband's grandfather ....... who was a Welsh Wesleyan Methodist Minister (ie Independent Minister), who was born Richard Roberts, apprenticed as a cabinet maker, then went to theological college in his late 20s ......... and somewhere along the line acquired the middle name of Morton it makes them even more difficult to find!! sylvia

	and the trail goes cold, so all I find is a biography of Thomas with a link to the Library list of notable welsh folk http://www.dyfedfhs.org.uk/welshbio.htm I'm not going to hazzard a guess, I suppose a marriage cert might help but not if father is yet another thomas ! Pendry might be a family name? I pondered over an english 1861 where poss Thomas is a boarder and clerk to a public ....?

Member Since: November 2005 Posts: 69 Send Message	Wow, you guys are good, Thanks a lot, great work. So to clarify, we think Alfred Evans father may have married twice or three times?: Thomas P Evans married: Mary Evans 1874 (is that her maiden name or married name)? Alice Guy 1874 Emma McLaren 1869 So Annie Evans must be Alfred Penry Evans wife (nee Mathias) m 1904. Geez-a-Lou trying to find a nephew connection can be tricky.;c) I'll wait and see what is uncovered. Bron

Member Since: November 2005 Posts: 69 Send Message	And quick did I add................... I thought being a Ordained Minister it would be easy but The Welsh still laugh at anyone today who says I'm Thomas Evans and you are too, you must be my cousin... Bron Thank you once again, I'll do a bit more surfing and will get back to you.
