Hi, my brick wall occurs with my great grandfather. It transpires he was illegitimate, his father Ellis Williams dying very young and before marriage. i am struggling to find anything of his past to continue the paternal line.I think it is Ellis Williams Edwards District Festiniog Volume 11b, page 354. We also think his Father was Ellis Williams, and his Mother was Jane E Edwards. Any help you can provide would be awesome! Thanks in advance!!

Mar 1898 - Ffestiniog, Caernarvonshire, Merionethshire

Hello

I have inserted the info for Ffestiniog, presumably you have the birth certificate,

Have you found the mother on the census returns for 1891 /1901 and checked the various pages to see if the 'father' is living in the village!

Have you found the death entry, Ellis James WILLIAMS 1875 - q1 1903 ffestiniog 11b 285 is the only local candidate I can find, the rest are older men!

Otherwise can you give more information

Villages in the Ffestigniog registration are

Beddgelert , Dolbenmaen, Edeyrn, Ffestiniog, Llanbedr, Llandanwg , Llandecwyn, Llanfair, Llanfihangel y Pennant, Llanfihangel y Traethau, Llanfrothen ,Maentwrog, Penmoria Penrhyndreudraeth, Talsarnau, Trawsfynyd, Treflys ,Ynyscynhaiarn
