I am researching an EVANS family from LLANGYNOG, Montgomeryshire: ROBERT EVANS b.1844, (son of ROBERT EVANS b. DOLGELLY, Merionethshire 1844), and his wife JANE; their eldest son, ROBERT EVANS, b.1864, died in France, 1916, (married to HANNAH MARIA and living in MERTHYR TYDFIL at the time of his enlistment); other children, WILLIAM, DAVID, EVAN, JOHN, HUMPHREY, ELLINOR, OWEN, EDWARD. My interest in this family is that I believe the ROBERT EVANS who died in WW1 to be the brother of my grandfather ALFRED WILSON, born in LLANGYNOG c.1868. ALFRED WILSON gives his place of birth as LLANGYNOG on the 1911 census and on his Army Medical Papers; so, even if he wasn't actually born there, he would seem to have a connection with that place. Much of the information I have about him came from his daughter, my late mother. She told me that ALFRED WILSON’S father's name was ROBERT and that his mother's name was JANE EVANS. While he was away serving in the Royal Artillery, during WW1, she was going through his drawers, as you do, and found a piece of paper with a list of names on it; she remembered ROBERT, WILLIAM, EVAN, OWEN. These, she was told by my grandmother, were her father's brothers; some of them, my mother remembered, were called EVANS. ROBERT, she was told, had been killed in action in WW1.The only ROBERT from Llangynog to be killed in WW1 is ROBERT EVANS of Tynewydd, Llangynog and he is commemorated in the Memorial Hall, Llangynog and also on the War Memorial in Merthyr Tydfil. I have not been able to identify ALFRED WILSON on any census before 1901, Then he is living in HOLLINWOOD, LANCASHIRE with his wife MARY ELLEN BROOKS, whom he married in 1896, and working as a coal miner. Apart from attending a funeral in Wales during WW1 and receiving a surprise visit from WILLIAM (or EVAN), he appears to have had little contact with his family. My mother sent a telegram to somewhere in WALES when he died in 1928. I would be interested to contact anyone related to this EVANS family in LLANGYNOG
