Looking for Edward Thomas Humphreys who was born in Llanrhaeadr-Ym-Mochnant (on the Denbighshire/Montgomeryshire border)Wales in 1874. He left home in 1895 when he would have been aged 21 apparently after an argument with his parents & was not seen again despite his parents spending the rest of their lives looking for him. Dont seem to be able to locate him anywhere.
