but I can't spot them in 1901

If Thomas did have a middle name, it could certainly help to know it.

Margaret, we do need to know everything you know, of course, especially dates, as has been mentioned. It doesn't make sense to ask for help and leave people in the dark about information you yourself have.

Alberta is just about the most difficult province of Canada to find information for. It does not have searchable indexes on line, for instance.

Since the brother was David John Jones and that deceased was John Benjamin Jones, he is not likely the, or a, brother. That deceased was a carpenter:

here is how to properly post that record, however, not occupying a full monitor:

birth: 7 January 1885, Wales
death:18 April 1940
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
father: Benjamin Jones
mother: Elizabeth
spouse: Daisy Jones


I suggest that you delete the record you posted, Malyon, since is is obviously so unrelated to this question.

could this be a brother of Thomas

John Benjamin Jones

, Wales


death:

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada


father:

Benjamin Jones


mother:

Elizabeth


spouse:

Daisy Jones

It's hard to even get a start on this one without some idea of birth dates.

Welcome to genesreunited, Margaret.

Have you any idea of his approximate age, as there are many possible births for Thomas Jones mmn Williams in Pontypridd district.

There are fewer marriages for Benjamin Jones and Elizabeth Williams in Pontypridd, but they could have married elsewhere.

The photo in 1937 could be at the start of his life in Canada, or at the end, a little more information would be useful.

I am looking for information on Thomas who was born in the Rhondda Valley to Benjamin Jones and Elizabeth Williams. He became a government official in Alberta Canada. I have a photo of a snow scene of a park in Alberta dated 1937. His brother David John Jones was a rector in the rocky Mountains in Canada.
Any information gratefully received.
