The information I have is as follows DOB 13/08/1858 This is written in the family Bible Marriage 10/03/1882 aged 24 to Catharine Williams of Lledrod. They were married in the church at Bettws Leiki(Leucu) DOD 25/12/1917 aged 59 His death was registered by a nephew David Richards. He is buried in St Ceithos church,Llangeitho My Mums cousin thinks he was 56 when he died and the grave stone says he was 61 !!!! As you can see NONE of the ages tally! I Know he had a sister called MARY (known as Mary Llanon in the family..possibly ran a dairy in Llanon) I believe she may have married a John Davies and they had the following children,(not sure of birth order apart from the youngest who was born when his dad was 70!) GLADYS..married ? Gibbs(Joe Gibb's brother) lived in Cardiff MARY Married Tommy??? OLWEN ANNIE..married Joe Gibbs MAGGIE married Jack Davies. Ran a dairy in Blackheath..Maggie worked in my grandmothers dairy in Cromer St London. She was 'lent' to my grandfathers cousins dairy ie Jack Davies and never came back as she ended up marrying him. JOHN ...known as John Bach. If any of this sounds familiar please get in touch and help me over that wall!!!! With many thanks Amanda
