Your story resonated for me as I have Welsh roots too. My breakthrough ancestor was David John Evans! Finding the right David Evans took a while, and once I had his marriage record to Lettice Day, I could trace his line forward to his children. I am currently writing up the stories of each of their children. However the next challenge is finding his grandparents, parents and siblings. More Evans in Wales!

Sometimes it feels like every village had to have their own David Jones—best of luck in your hunt!
