Hello Alun, could you confirm who he married in 1893?

There are so many Jones anything that narrows it down helps! MC

(PS - did you realise your name isn't showing above?)

The marriage cert will include his father's details (if known) and we need as much info as you can give with the name Jones in Wales.

FannyByGaslight Report 20 Nov 2010 22:50

All the details from his marriage cert will be needed to have ANY hope of finding him with parents,if he can be then.

Alun is the name of my very favourite builder friend.!

Like your new name Katie ;)

Unfortunately, I can't send Alun a message to let him know that he has replies as his name is missing - just as mine is!! Cx

I know Cynthia,its a real bother isnt it?
I have tried searching trees with the details of Robert Jones to look for an Alun being the owner ,but have found none.
Thinks.....
Have your names gone from your trees due to you also being invisible name on here?

Katie Report 21 Nov 2010 17:42

I think this must be the marriage - another Jones
Marriages Jun 1893
Jones Robert Bedwelty 11a 134
Jones Sarah Ellen Bedwelty 11a 134

Have had to revert to my original name - someone didn't like it!

That is downright mean Katie,I thought it was good..
AnnOGGs name for you may stick?
Glad to hear your tree names havent disappeared as well as your boardname Cyn..

How are you managing Flick,any better than us getting round this "new and better site"?.

Hi FBG

I find it infuriating to be unable to view the full TTF board if I forget myself and click on TTF under Boards summary after I have had a thread open on TTF.

I try to remember to go via Records, or My thread participation......but old habits are hard to lose............and I end up with the blasted 'surnamefilter'

I think Katie must have had a complaint from one or more of the advisors....hence reverting to her old name.

~~~~~~~~~to the nameless one! Hello C................

I haven't seem any really new members asking for guidance on the help clinic, although there are a number who have had help on the ordinary boards who are asking the same questions on there.....don't they realise that it's populated by the very same people who repied to their original requests?

Good evening Flick. Glad you recognised me! Cx

Well I hope that when the powers that be come back from their weekend break that they start sorting this mess out is all I can say.
We have had some changes over the years on here,but this takes the biscuit !

Poor Alun,we have threadjacked his thread.
But I am sure he will understand when he sees all this cos he MUST be a nice Welshman with a lovely name like Alun.
