Member Since: May 2005 Posts: 27 Send Message	Hello Jane Yes I know the odds are against me finding a relation, but you never know unless you try I guess. At present I am just looking for descendants because there are lots of gaps. Have a look at one of my replies to LadyKira as to what help I am looking for. In the 1881 census Robert was with a Benjamin Littler and his wife Mary and Benjamin turns up again in 1882 with Robert in some Probate records for the Captain, so I thought, OK Littler is a little more unusual so maybe he lodged with them earlier but I had no luck finding them in earlier census's. He is a mystery but maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places. Thanks Linda

Member Since: May 2005 Posts: 27 Send Message	Hi Ladykira Thanks for the web site, that's my bolg with my uncle and a new found relation. We are trying to find out more about the mysterious Robert Davies, son of Captain Robert Davies. I have found him in the 1881 census as a visitor and it says he was born in 1843, so he missed the 1841 census and all the others until 1881. He was shipped off to boarding school presumably before the 1851 census, he went to Ellesmere College and Liverpool College apparently. I guess the school would have recorded the students on the census nights so how do you find them? Can you or anyone help? Thanks Linda

	As we always say, the odds of anyone for whom this rings a bell seeing your message are slim to nil. ;) If you are looking for particular info -- his descendants, ancestors? -- various of us unrelated helpful other members might be able to help, if you say what info it is.

Member Since: May 2005 Posts: 27 Send Message	Does anyone have a Captain Robert Davies of Mostyn in their family history. Born around 1802 in Amlwch, Anglesey and died in Mostyn in 1882. His wife was Margaret Davies nee Owen. His son Robert Davies's trustees donated money to build The Robert Davies Memorial Hall in Mostyn around the 1920's. Does this ring a bell?
