Hi John, was Jones her maiden name do you know? If so, it may be worth looking through the marriage indexes to find a possible marriage for her.

Do you have any other info?

Jones a bit of a nightmare to research.

Thanks Sylvia. I must have missed that as I got up to 1955.

I would think it is very likely to be the correct one.

Hi,

John has been in touch, do not think he has a lot to go on, I reckon it is worth ordering the marriage cert to confirm the name age etc.

Think Eliza may have been one of 10, couple of poss children to the marriage if they where born in Ludlow, Evans/Jones births there are so many if they moved away.

Whirley Report 28 Apr 2009 19:00

Thanks Sheila and all. Well if John comes back once he has the M/c and we can go from there. We have poss addresses (1 each) for Jones & Evans in Shrop..........

Hi Claire

Only problem is Eliza was 1 of 10 and only 1 is male , found poss address for him, but give that all these people could be in their 80's or 90's then I am not sure.
