Wouldnt it be a sisters child as he had the name Harries and not Owen?

Do you know what happened to the sisters?

A nephew in law is going to be a male ( obviously! ,) and given that the name isn't going to be too common, i'd go the other way about this - start with Harries births since about 1940, and take them back, see if they go back to the right family and how.

I am not really sure what a nephew-in-law is! a nephew is a child of your sibling, What is a nephew in law?

Jeepers - its a lot more common a name than i thought!

Flick Report 15 Dec 2011 09:50

For 'LEGWEN' read TEGWEN............Welsh forename

John...........

A Nephew -in - Law cannot possibly be anyone's wife

ON 1911 ............

Evan Ino is actually Evan Jno............so he was Evan John

Correction submitted.........and also for Tegwen.

9 children born in marriage - 2 have died.

So, John, you will have to research the descendants of SIX siblings to try to identify T Harries.

Happy hunting
