hi all,

i am very frustrated at the mo, researching my family as i cant seem to find anything i am looking for, so am hoping someone shares the same line of interest or has any info or advice.
i am looking for info on a thomas edwards b.1783 mynyddislwyn and died 1858 blaina, his first wife was mary, b.1784 and was of llanhilleth parish d.1815 and his second wife susannah b.1785 merthyr d.1868. ebbw vale. thomas and mary had one son that i know of john edwards b.1808 mynyddislwyn,d.1859 aberbeeg. thomas and susannah had 5 children, william b.1826, sarah 1827, leah 1829, edward 1833 and david 1835 all born aberstryth.
on the 1841 and 1851 census the family are living in aberstryth.
what confuses me is that they lived and died around bedwelty and aberstryth areas, and are buried at mynyddislwyn church???

any help greatly appreciated

Just a stab here.

If Thomas Edwards was born in mynyddislwyn, could it be they had a family plot & were buried there, no matter where they died ?

Hi,
I have been researching my family tree and your post popped up!
We are related?! I have also been looking into Thomas Edwards, however I didn't know he had a first wife
I only knew about Susannah
I am sorry I can't help with your enquiry and I hope you found your answer!
Do you have any information on Thomas Edwards' parents?
This is all I have.
THOMAS EDWARDS Born: 1739 Married: 1780 SARAH ROGERS in Llanhilleth, Monmouthshire, Wales
And being in Australia has hindered my research efforts.
I am connected to the tree from LEAH SELINA WARLOW and her daughter SUSANNA ROWAN
does that ring any bells?
