OK best thing is to get the birth cert. of Gwyneth as it will then give you her mother's name and exactly where Gwyneth was born. the birth registration too place in Llanfyllin Vol. 11b page 232. (Gwyneth Jones) mother Jones.
To send for the cert. write to the following enclosing a £7 cheque and a stamped self-addressed envelope, put on the request your telephone number in case of query,
The Register Office,
District Council Offices,
Neuadd Maldwyn
WELSHPOOL, SY21 7AS.


Good luck

Hi, Looks very much as though granbdmother was illeg.(born to unmarried Mum) otherwise there probably would have been a father's name in the appropriate box on the marriage cert. and also the fact that her mother's name was also Jones. I will see if I can come up with any other dates that are relevant.

My Grandmother was named Gwneth Jones (i believe this is her maiden name) she married my Grandfather Idwal Adams. On their marriage certificate there is no mention of her father. I have not got her birth certificate, on my mothers forms it says mothers maiden Jones.

Any help, ideas or even tips will be gratefully appreciated.

My mother does not remeber her grandfather.

Gwyneth was born in Oct-Dec 1929, married Idwal 3rd August 1945 and died 7th Jan 1967
