Find Ancestors

Please help!!

Trying to trace Jones family, they lived in Llanfrynach and Brecknock areas during the 17 and 1800's. I've gone as far back as Rees Jones born 1797 who owned an 82 acre farm in Llanfrynach and was married to Mary (1805), but am now stuck!

Anything would help.

Many thanks
Louise

Ages of over-15's were rounded down to nearest 5 in 1841, so possibly born before 1796

David would be of the right age to be his father...................

These MAY be the births of the girls, but it's by no means certain

Hi All

thank you for coming back! I found Rees and his wife and children and David his father appears in the earlier cenus, but I can't find anything before that. I've looked mainly on this site and birth, death and marriage records but this is as far as I've got.

I can't find a record of david before he appears on the cenus with Rees.

Thanks
Louise
