Find Ancestors

Unsubstantiated info from relatives is not a good basis for research

Perhaps her father 'didn't talk about his father' because he didn't know him

This tree isn't going to be completed accurately without expenditure on certs.........

The birthdates and other info came from his daughter she lives in Argentina now so has no documents other than her memories.
Her father didn't talk about his father.
She has just become a Grandmother herself and I wanted to do a tree as a surprize

Buy the 1950 marriage cert to find out her father's name - and William's (assuming they were known)

It would also help if you identified the source of your 'info' about William Price's mother's name..............

Also - how you 'know' where William was born.............

Sorry should have added this rather than a new thread

I am looking for a Margaret Mcglynn b 7th March 1915 possibly from the Galway Bay area

She married twice first to Kenneth Pugh then to William Robert Price b 1912 (see earlier post) in 1950 in Liverpool.

Does anyone have access to Irish records?

New thread: http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.page/board/ancestors/thread/1302961

I have now found out that William Robert Price's mothers name was Emily so I am back to square one!
They must have been living in the Bedwelty area as William was born there but I can't find a marriage.

1901

My conclusion is that 'Hannah' is Urinah. The image is Hannah, but that could have been copied incorrectly from the enumerator's notes

This all looks v promising

This could be Urinah's birth:-


Name: ROBERTS, Urina
Registration district: Pontypridd
County: Glamorganshire
Year of registration: 1883
Quarter of registration: Jul-Aug-Sep
Mother's maiden name: Not available before 1911 Q3
Volume no: 11A
Page no: 438

?????????

Births Sep 1892 (>99%)
Price Moses William Merthyr T. 11a 588

Name: Moses William Price
Birth Date: 27 Jun 1892
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1970
Age at Death: 78
Registration district: Selby
Inferred County: Yorkshire West Riding
Volume: 2c
Page: 1800

No wonder I couldn't see the birth on freebmd - used the refs from Kathleen's helpful post

Births Jun 1912 (>99%)

Price Wiliam R Roberts Bedwellty 11a 270

Never rely on hearsay - although the date isn't too far out in this instance

Name: William Robert Price
Birth Date: 2 May 1912
Date of Registration: Oct 1992
Age at Death: 80
Registration district: Liverpool
Inferred County: Lancashire
Volume: 36
Page: 578

Price and Roberts in Wales!

You'll need the birth cert

Possible marriage for parents but you really need the birth certificate to be sure as there are other Price/Roberts marriages earlier:-

Name: ROBERTS, Urinsh (the image actually says Urinah)
Registration district: Bedwellty
County: Monmouthshire
Year of registration: 1911
Quarter of registration: Jan-Feb-Mar
Spouse's last name: Not available before 1912
Volume no: 11A
Page no: 101

MarriageFinder: Urinsh Roberts married one of the following people:

WILLIAMS, Rose
DAVIES, David D
PRICE, Moses W<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
WATKINS, William

Kath. x

This looks like his birth:-


Name: PRICE, William R
Registration district: Bedwellty
County: Monmouthshire
Year of registration: 1912
Quarter of registration: Apr-May-Jun
Mother's maiden name: Roberts
Volume no: 11A
Page no: 270

Bedwellty registration district covers Ebbw Vale.

I wonder if his middle name was Roberts after his mother's maiden name rather than just Robert.

Kath. x

The birthday was from a friend I presume it is correct. Also his death reg in October 1992 states he was 80

He married a Margaret McGlynn in 1950 Liverpool

No birth on freebmd in the period you state.

Was he perhaps born with a different surname?

Where did you find out the exact DOB?

Did he marry?

Father - if known- will be named on marriage cert

I'm trying to find the parents of William Robert Price b 2/4/1912 supposidly in Ebbw Vale Wales.

I've tried the usual sources ie FreeBMD and Family search but with no luck.
Can anyone help please,

I know Price will be a common name in Wales but is it possible to see if there are any families of the right kind of age in the 1911 census who might have gone on to have a son in 1912?

Any help much appreciated

Mary
