It is greatly encouraging that more and more of the Parish Registers are becoming available online now.

One of the many Jones families I have links to lived in Welshpool Montgomeryshire.In 1861 you will find a John Jones(Sawyer) born in Welshpool in c 1809 and his Wife Ann given as born in Llangyniew in c 1818 with children Robert(c1845),Richard(c1847),Thomas(c1852), Martha Jane(c1858).There was also an earlier child Ann born in 1840.

I'm told that the Baptisms for Welshpool St Mary in Montgomeryshire are now online.Can anyone with access to these do a look up for any of these Baptisms please.

Regards

William Russell Jones.

I have edited out all the irrelevant stuff.
Thats the easy one.
I will search for the others later as I have to go out and each one has to be viewed so not a quick task on Findmypast.

Specially with JONES being the surname.

Many thanks Fanny By Gaslight for your reply.Of course I'm hoping against hope that one of them might have Ann's maiden name on them.

Never seen a Welsh one yet with mothers maiden name on,but there is always the exception of course.

The one that Gael found



Day: 22
Month: Sept
Year: 1844
Title:
Forenames: Robert
Fathers forenames: John
Fathers surname: JONES
Fathers occupation: Sawyer
Fathers abode: Pool Town
Mothers forenames: Ann
Place: Welshpool
County: Montgomeryshire
Country: Wales


Day: 25
Month: May
Year: 1851
Title:
Forenames: Thomas
Fathers forenames: John
Fathers surname: JONES
Fathers occupation: Sawyer
Fathers abode: Pool Town
Mothers forenames: Ann
Place: Welshpool
County: Montgomeryshire
Country: Wales

Richard c1847and Ann c1840 do not seem to be on there,but I may have missed them.
There were a lot of Illegitimate children with fathers names recorded at baptism I did note though.
Now if I could only find the ones I want like that for my best friends family in the Tregaron area I would be a happy bunny as on her fathers side starting with her grandmother every other person has no father on their birth cert.

Really must go now or I shall be shouted at...as if !

Fan

Edit.
Totally different family I think Mike.
John was a Sawyer.

Thanks Mike and Fanny By Gaslight once again for your replies,I have seen one or two Parishes in the Denbighshire and Flintshire areas with the mother's maiden name on but they may be the exception!
