Trying for 25 yrs to trace my family with no luck. My great grandfather John Wm. Roberts 18561925 m. Mary Elizabeth Jones 18591927. The family moved here to Canada in 1907. In 1891 census they lived in Buckley, Mold. In 1901 census they were living in Lowton St Mary, Lancashire. John returned back overseas and past away 1925 but Mary died here in Canada. According to her death cert.her father was listed as John Jones. The 1901 census has Marys nephew Henry Burt and Johns sister Elizabeth Roberts living with them. I cant seem to get back past John and Mary to their parents and siblings. Any help would be appreciated. Also yrs ago I orded 2 cert. and when I recieved them they were not my family I think. If they belong to anyone I would be happy to email a copy to you.I have a marriage 1880 for John Roberts s/o Edward Roberts and Mary Jones d/o Samuel Jones. Death cert. for Wm. John Roberts 1925 m. to Maria E.
Thank you, Gwen Cape Breton Island, Canada

Robert Talkington Florida, USA Feb 24, 2015
I have been able to trace my family name to Robert Torkington, my 10th ggf, born 02/1583. Robert was the father of Joseph Torkington born in 1604.

If any one has a Talkington, Torkinton, Torkington, or Tarkenton, between 1400 and 1563, I would truly appreciate a note with said information.

Respectfully Robert

Trying to find records for Yeates family, ca. 1760 - 1773. They departed Wales, went to London, and then to the Colonies. Major Jethro Yates/Yeats sold land in western NC in Apr 1774. His son, William, lived in Wake Co., NC. Do not know what UK records to research on this.

Hi I am trying to locate a Rowlands family from the Holyhead/Anglesey area of Wales.
The information I have is that a Thomas Rowlands married a Sarah Harris in 1934, they went on to have 6 children. The eldest was Richard (1934), Hywel (1936), Margaret (1938), John (1939), Isabel (1942) and Catherine (1944).
I believe Richard married a Mary Jones in 1960 and they had two daughters before separating. Richard was a minister in the forces, then went on to run a chicken farm in Anglesey. Richard also married a Marared Jones. Richard passed away in June 1995.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
