Hi there,

Am looking for any ROBERTS descendants of the Llandovery area preferably connected to Crown Stores (or Jubliee Stores).

Get in touch if you think we have a connection.

as with your Crockett thread - look for them - use Search Trees tab at the top of this page for any connections on this site - highly unlikely anyone who knows them will see your posting

again my apologies Anne,

Elizabeth Roberts born c.1883 in Llandovery, cousin to family of Roberts who owned Jubilee Stores (Crown Stores) of the same town. Married Lewis Crockett in Vaynor Chapel Merthyr Tydfil in or around 1910.

Unfortunately I have little else on the Roberts family to directly connect my Elizabeth to the Roberts of Llandovery only that she went to live with an aunt prior to her marriage to my g/grandfather.

Hope someone can help.

Oooh ok I'm a bit confused but think you mean to keep all my family on one thread? Hope so!

The Lewis who is cited below I believe to be the Rev.Lewis Crockett of St.Hilary in Cowbridge. He married Enid Muriel (dont know her unmarried name) and they went on to have a daughter Muriel who passed away in 2002. She lived with her mother and father in The Rectory in St.Hilary until Rev.Lewis Crockett retired from his position and during this time he wife also died at a relatively young age. They (Rev.Lewis and Muriel) then lived in The Nest, St.Hilary directly opposite The Rectory. Lewis' mother is buried in Capel y Ton in Tonyrefail which unfortunately caught fire about 2yrs ago taking anything and everything with it...graves still remain.

I'll try to connect the information I've been so kindly given by posters now with regard to Elizabeth Ann Roberts. She married Lewis Crockett in Apr/May/June 1904 in Vaynor Chapel, Merthyr Tydfil.

What I'm going to have to find out now are the names of her parents which I assume I would now contact Merthyr Tydfil Register Office to obtain the marriage certficate? She's proved a little elusive up until now but I blame that on my lack of time to ge to these places to obtain such info. Is there another way I could be doing this?

Thanks again so far for the information.
