Does anyone have a Mary Jones in their tree born Christmas Day 1877, or a year either side, with a father named George who was a miner.

How can you have no idea where she was born if you have her exact date of birth ,christmas day,but a year either way of 1877?
where did you get the info from ,who is she?
I am so curious now of who she is,
Bet any money shes from south wales then with a name like that and a miner for a father!
Now prove me wrong.

From ancestry

Mary Jones, b. 1877 +/- 2 years, father George

43 1881 England Census
19 1881 Wales Census


Then changes to:-
21 1891 England Census
9 1891 Wales Census

and:-
9 1901 England Census
5 1901 Wales Census



would have to open each one to find how many Georges were miners.

Lewella

Lewella Report 20 Apr 2009 00:26

I wonder where the Mary fits into Kate's tree. Kate must have some information about her, like who she married, what children she had????

SylviaInCanada

SylviaInCanada Report 20 Apr 2009 00:36

you mean Jhones, Mayr, Maria, or even M, etc?


not about to get into them!!!

FannyByGaslight

FannyByGaslight Report 20 Apr 2009 00:42

or even
Janes
seen those too for Jones

And actually ,Mair, is the welsh for mary,but you will rarely see it on a census as they are all anglisised,or so it seems to me.
