Hi

I'm tracing my father-in-laws tree and have come to blank to his brothers & sisters. His mother Emily died when he was twelve and he cant remember much after that (due to ill health now).

His parents were Thomas William Davies b.1884 d.1957 married 13.10.1906 to Emily Stafford b.03.07.1887 d.13.05.1942, they had 9 children -

Herbert Thomas b.1907
Rosina Gwedoline b.1908
Godfrey L. b.25.0.1910 - d.May 1991 - Chichester
Roy S b.1912 - d.1913
Hilda M. b.1913 - d 1964 - Married name "Gerrish"
Violet E. b.07.09.1915
Thomas William b.1821 (could have died in Spain)
Gwynne b.1825
Kenneth Alan b.07.04.1930 (father in law)

They were all born in Newport, Wales and lived @ 64 Durham Road, Newport.

Thomas William Davies Snr - Remarried a Mrs Knowles and lived in Bedfordshire in the 1950s

If any one can help, I would be most grateful..
Thanks

Hi Andrea
I am looking for the parents of a Beatrice May Davies, she moved to Hong Kong in 1924 from Newport Wales. She married a Wilkinson in Hong Kong, he was her first cousin. Her father is stated as Richard Davies but the mother is not mentioned, is the name pretty common round those prats as I live in Australia. Thank You louise
