i found a william jones on 1837 who is the other jones im trying to do and his mothers name was rowley but there are that many william jonses i dont have a clue whos mine angie xx

I must admit, Dea Shaw, I was assuming that the 'Rowley' was the place not the bride - but I have encountered it as a relevant area-name in the Birmingham area. Christine

any suggestions on what to do next im absolutly stumped angie xx

thats fine jess my eyes are dropping to thank you so much for been patient with me god bless angie xx

its all these jonses jess they doing my head in im consentrating on george evan or ewan(cant make out his middle name on the marriage cert) his dad was frederick jones and was a baker i dont know were to go from here i dont have any censes info on this family or george and fredericks birth cert angie xx

can you take us right forward to what you know to be fact? Obviously You are a jones...Your father(or F-in-law) thus a George Evan/ewanJones - is he the son of Jones + ada Rodds?

Angela, If it was my message that made you think you had upset people - please do not worry - I too am often guilty of getting over-excited when I find a lead to follow. Just learn from experience and follow one lead at a time - on one thread at a time. - That way you won't confuse people (which is all I was - confused !! - not upset. ). Don't be put off asking for help as there are a lot of very helpful people on here. - Just take things one step at a time. Best wishes and good luck in your search. Dea

Angela - you didnt upset me- just in case you thought you did- just that i am not sure where you are going or how sure you are about what you have asked us to look up! (if the ref had the mothers maiden name for that George Ewan.evan jones , would you know it anyway?)

iv had 2 marriage certs today and both are jones im looking for the birth of both the grooms and im trying to find a marriage of one of the grooms parents i know iv upset a lot of people on here today and i do try and do things myself i do pay for credits but just needed a little extra help sorry for been a pain as jess said i got to over excited at trying to find every one at once im now consentrating on finding the birth of george evan or ewan jones which some one may have found for me many thanks angie xx

If the cert said your Mr. Jones married Ada Rodds - wy did you ask us to find a Jones that married a Rowley??? Dea

thank you for all your help again i was thinking he may have been welsh especially with a middle name like evan i dont know wether to risk the birth cert or not does it have his mothers maiden name angie xx

Looks like you're down to a systematic run through the people called George Jones in the 1891 census and who have a father called Frederick - starting with the Birmingham area, and then working outwards. Christine

the marriage cert i have is as follows george evan or ewan jones and ada rodds it is adas second marriage they were married 1920 july the 10th am trying to find georges birth they were married in b,ham angie xx

While I'm monopolising the thread, I may as well suggest that the 1920 marriage could be this one: West Midlands Marriage indexes for the years: 1920 Surname Forename(s) / Surname / Forename(s) / Church / Register Office / Registers At / Reference JONES / George E / BAYLISS / Mary A / Smethwick, St Paul / Sandwell / 9/5/151 Christine

There is this one - but he's either younger than he claims at marriage, or the birth was recorded late: Name: Jones, Evan George Record Type: Births Quarter: June Year: 1889 District: Merthyr Tydfil County: Breconshire Glamorgan Mid Glamorgan Volume: 11a Page: 572 It's also a fair distance from where you were expecting! Christine

I think I've found the 1887 GEJ, but he's probably this one: Name: Jones, George Edward Record Type: Births Quarter: June Year: 1887 District: Kings Norton County: Staffordshire Warwickshire Worcestershire Volume: 6c Page: 480 so not your man. Christine
