Trying to find Jones

Hi, We are trying to find out the name and history of my Grandfathers father. My Grandfather JOHN TUDOR JONES was born Oct 30th, 1931 in 3 Ereall Gardens, Wellington, Shropshire, England, his biological mother AGNES JONES gave him to her sister MARY NANCY JONES who raised him as her own at 22 Kings Road, Connahs Quay, Flint, Wales. We know that Agnes worked in a Manor type house as a maid, probably in Warmsley, Bury, Greater Manchester (Back then the county was Lancashire) or Worsley, Salford, Greater Manchester (Back then the county was Lancashire). Agnes became pregnant with my Grandfather whilst working there, we believe the surname of his father was Mc.....?. It has been suggested the butler of the house may have been his father, although this is only speculation. She then after his birth worked in a cotton mill, Warmsley/Worsley. Agnes later married HAROLD BARLOW (mechanic & from Warmsley/Worsley himself) in the district of Holywell, Flintshire, Wales on 4th June, 1938. Agnes' father was SAMUEL JONES, Agnes' sisters were HILDA, GINNY, GWEN AND MARY JONES, who we believe were born in Holywell. If you have any info regarding my Grandfathers father or any of my family, please please contact me. Thanks, Gemma
