I am looking for some information on my grandmother's family in Wales. She was born Ellen Blanche Evans around 1876. At least some of the time she lived in or near Rhayader. In approximately 1906 she married George Smith from Scotland, who was a stone mason, and they moved to Canada/US. She returned to Wales in 1908 for my mother to be born there (Ellen Margaret Smith). I think she made one trip back to Wales after that, around 1925. She died in Canada in 1937.
I believe my grandmother's father's name was Richard Evans and she had several brothers and sisters. I remember hearing that one sister (or perhaps cousin) of my grandmother's had gone to Egypt with her husband and baby and they drowned on the Nile.
If anyone knows anything about this family, I'd love to hear more. |
