Hello, Trying to trace the wherabouts of this man born 1854 in Holywell, Flintshire in 1871 and 1891 if possible please. Hopefully won't be too difficult with a name like that!! He was still resident in Flintshire (Caerwys) in 1901, so it's odds on that he'll be around that area. Any help appreciated. Pauline

Pauline, There's also one lodging in Prescot Lancashire a coal miner, age 35 born Holywell. It states he's married although there's no wife with him. There is a Mary Jones aged 14 single also born Holywell who is a servant in the household where Theo. is lodging. Emma.

Emma, That was quick! The first one is the man as the birthplace fits as does that of his wife, Mary. Interesting to see mother in law there - that may give a lead elsewhere. Thanks for your time Pauline

Hello Still hoping that somebody can find him in 1871. Reason being I think he may have a different wife. Regards Pauline
