Oooo get you, you scholar you Belle :-D :-D

I have found Baptisms,Marriage, Census and death for a William P and Margaret B Nicholas that are buried opposite Jemima Nicholas (Jemima Fawr)'s memorial stone in St Mary's Church. Also for his parents- David Vaughan Nicholas and Ann in Main Street, Fishguard- a Post Master.

Jemima (my 5x Great Aunt) died in Main Street, so there may be a family link somewhere. Not my line of descent.

According to Haverford West Register Office / Historians / Researchers, there is absolutely nothing to prove she ever married and had children. Nicholas was her maiden name. Some on Ancestry claim descent from her though.

It'll be further back in time though, unless she really did have illegitimate children like some have claimed.

In a way, I hope not, cos the little bit of disappointment at not being directly descended from her, like the family story was told me, was softened by the fact that she had no children.

I have descended from her younger brother Isaac.

That's the problem Jem the Internet is a public forum that's why GR don't like people putting their email address or tel no on a post because anyone can pick it up :-0 :-0
