I have looked on every site I can think of to try and find some info about Ivan Roberts born approx 1898 in Wales (in or near to Ysbyty Ifan) and married Hannah Jane (surname unknown) also born approx 1898 in or around Capel Garmon. We dont have any birth certs or any documents with any other info that may help, so just wondered if anyone could help us out?

How have you arrived at the names and approx years of birth?

Do you have them on a birth cert?

Do you have the names and approximate years of birth of any of their children?

Do you know when Ivan or Hannah died?

For reference because my geographical knowledge of Wales is nil.

Civil Registration
When Civil Registration was introduced (on 1 July 1837), the parish of Ysbyty Ifan was assigned to the No. 3 ("Yspytty") sub-district of the Llanrwst Registration District; which was co-extensive with the Llanrwst poor law Union.

In the GRO indexes to civil registration, entries for Ysbyty Ifan are in the format :

* Years 1837 - 1851: Llanrwst XXVII.nnn
* Years 1851 - 1930: Llanrwst 11b.nnn

Could it be Evan rather than Ivan ?
