Looking for knowledge on Annie Davies born 1890 and her sister Sarah Jane born 1896 in Tylorstown. They lived at 137 East Road.
Their brother Samuel emigrated to Australia prior to WW1, their other brother Richard married Martha Maud Biddiscombe and moved to Kent in the1930's. Annie married Walter Biddiscombe.

Their parents were Richard & Hannah (Grainger) Davies. Richard was killed in pit disaster - Hannah subsequently married Frank Mabey and went on to have Florrie and Tommy(Mabey)

Would like to know what happened to Annie & Sarah Jane - I know one of them came to Richard's furneral in Kent -1950.

Thanks,
Sharon Davies

Hi Sharon,
Only just come across your post here.
Annie and Walter Biddiscombe were my maternal grandparents, both are buried in Maerdy / Ferndale cemetery
I believe Sarah died at a young age in childbirth and is buried at penrhys cemetery.

Are we related ?
Regards
Avril

Welcome to the boards, Avril.

As Malyon says, Sharon's post is an old one. It's highly unlikely that Sharon will be looking for replies here now.

You can try sending her a private message - click on her name at the top of her post (in green).
If she has kept GR advised of her current email address, they will let her know that she has a message from you.

She may or may not reply!
Good luck.
