Thank you to the new contributors its most gratefully recieved, can I ask for another favour . My grandfathers brother Herbert married a woman called Grace and had 3 children Margaret [peggy] Stanley and Ann in 1924 1927 and 1940. I can find 2 Graces who may be correct one Grace Brown married Herbert Thomas but I cannot find the children and one Grace Thomas who I cannot find in the marriage records but can find children named Stanley and Anne down as her children so I am quite confused and dont quite know what to do next. Gill

I think you mean Grace Moseley (marriage recorded 1924) - and there were children Stanley H (1929) and Ann D (1940), but no sign of Margaret either under the name Thomas or Moseley. There was another possible child registered in the area called Grace D Thomas though.

Flip Thanks for that I was getting confused with the different Graces, my cousin definately remembers 3 cousins so maybe Peggy was a child of a previous marriage, according to my aunts notes she had a son Tony in the fifties its a shame shes not still alive I could pick her brains. If you dont mind helping some more Im looking for any relatives of Alexander Mills and his wife Sarah Maria Tresadern Im not having any luck with either of them and the only person Ive found who could help is not answering my e mails. Thanks once again all help is appreciated. Gill
