On the 1881 census living at Plas Madoc, Kerry, Montgomery I have David and Marie Jones. They had a Tryphena Jones living with them she was there Gr Daur aged 23, could anyone help me trace her parents.

She's with them on the 1871 too. Given the fact that she has the same surname, she might well be one of their son's daughters. But that's not concrete. Sorry I couldn't help more. She married John Powell in 1881. She's under Tryphena HOWELLS on the 1891. Chloe

Lisa Have you tried looking for her birth reference c 1857? Surely, it's her birth certificate that you need. Chrissie

Doesn't look like her birth has been transcribed yet on ancestry/freebmd - nothing for Try* born 11b Newtown registration district between 1850 and 1860. Looks like you'll have to do an 1837online search
