Hi Lorraine,

Thank you so very much for your great help. I've been searching for some time to see when she emigrated. Thanks also for looking for the girls & William Baker and the info on Arthur.

I'ts been a great help, so much so I think I may have finally found a living descendent of him.

Thanks again, your've been terrific.

Good luck on your own research.

Regards, Lou

Hi Lorraine,

That's definitely my Stanley's baptism. Thank you. I'm surprised you didn't find anything for Ethel Mary, usually if one child is baptised then they all are. I suppose they had to buck the trend!

Thank you for your time and the info, Karen

Hi Loraine
Could I ask if you could look at the 1910 US census for me please. I am trying to trace
Llewelyn Evans born 1868, Anglesey, Wales
I know he moved to Phoenix (not sure when) and married Anne ? (possibly had the maiden name Evans as well) b1871, Dogelly, Wales, and between them they had 4 children Margaret Evans born 1903, Wisconsin, Richard Evans b1904, Wisconsin, Albert Evans b1909, Phoenix, Wilbur Evans b1912 Phoenix.
Were there any other children?
Is there any record of their ships passage over to the US.

Many thanks

Vicki
I am also interested to see if you would

Hi Lorraine

In that case do you have the marriage details for a Robert Sutherland who wed an Elizabeth Wilson in 1887 in Allegheny, PA.

Plus a Thomas Musgrave death in PA from 1900 to 1910. My ancestor was on the 1900 census aged 72 but he is not on the 1910 US census.

Plus if you are able to the death details of an Elizabeth Sutherland in 1911 in Allegheny please if you could?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Loraine
Thanks so much for the info, really appreciate it. I haven't been able to trace him as yet beyond 1881, but I still have alot of searching to do, I have only just started on this side of the family but found a match for Llewelyn and was told he'd gone to the US but this lady seemed quite confused with the details. Llewelyn was the son of Richard Evans born 1831, Anglesey and Margaret Rogers born 1839, Caernarfon, he was one of 9 brothers born between 1864 and 1877 I think. Llewelyn was the 3rd or 4th born and 2 of the brothers died in infancy in the early 1870's and one died age 5. I am not able to search tonight but I will check the census records tomorrow and let you know if I find him. Thanks again

there is nothing for a marriage for robert and elizabeth nor a death for thomas, or elizabeth bit too early for records I think, the social security index dosent seem to start until the 1960,s

Hi Loraine

I have had a search around and can't find Llewelyn on the 1891 or 1901 census but then I'm struggling to find the whole family in 1891. I think I have found 3 of his brothers, Thomas Rogers Evans, John Arthur Evans and Samuel Lloyd Evans at an aunts house, however I need to be sure it's them. I can't find the parents though. In 1901 the parents are living with their son Thomas and their daughter-in-law so based on all this I am assuming Llewelyn went to the US before 1891.

I have received a PM from a lady who has Llewelyn in her tree and she has him marrying an Anne Evans (coincidence her maiden name is the same as her married name) in Wisconsin sometime around 1900, could you please check this as well.

Your time is appreciated.

Hi Loraine
As well as trying to track Llewelyn Evans down (thanks very much for the census info you have found for me already), I cant find him on any UK census after 1881, and I updated my previous post with details of his possible marriage in Wisconsin, if you are able to check.

Llewelyn also had 3 brothers who I can not track down either - Hywell Evans born 1877, Bangor, Caernarfonshire - I think I have found him on the 1910 US Federal Census in Massachusetts but can not get any further info to it, again when did he go to the US and did he go alone, marry once out there etc,
John Arthur Evans born 1866ish, Holyhead, caernarfon, - no idea what became of him
Samuel Lloyd Evans born c1872, again no idea about him either, although family rumour says they all ended up in the US

Once again you time on all this is very appreciated.
