Hi

Iam researching my family tree on the of my granddad George Wilfred Jones (1921) the son of Harold Jones (1894) and Kate Grainger.

Harold Jones was married to Kate Grainger (1894) they had 5 children 3 boys and 2 girls.

Harold had a brother Wilfred Jones (1915) and a sister Olive Jones (1919). Iam not sure if they had they had any more children.

Iam looking for my ancestors.

They come from Brymbo north Wales

Thank you

Jess

Just seen your reply about where they come from, so this looks like the right marriage.

The certificate will give you their approximate ages and also both of their fathers names and occupations and will help to find them in the census, and work backwards.

Jones Olive - Grainger Wrexham 11b 402

Births Mar 1920

They may not all be your family but the mother's maiden name is correct.
