[QUOTE="Bakersgma, post: 52323, member: 59"]One last update for today. While searching for more info on Idris' father, I found that Idris was still living with his father and step-mother in Poultney in 1910. It didn't come up in my earlier search because Idris' name was misspelled. His father William Owen Williams was born 25 Mar 1861 in Bethesda, Llanllechid, Caernarfonshire, Wales to Owen Williams and Mary Griffiths. William died 5 Jul 1923 in Poultney. Idris' mother Catherine Ellis immigrated with her parents and 4 brothers, all lived in Poultney (and one brother was named Emrys!). She was born in Llanllyfni, Caernarfonshire. She married William O Williams in Poultney on 30 Mar 1885. There is 1 public tree that focuses on the Ellis line and that was the source of the birthplaces. You should be able to see it if you put in all the information about her. There is also a private tree that from it's title should be more wide-ranging and you might want to contact that tree owner with information about the album (if your intent is to get it back to "the family." If not, then forget I mentioned it.)[/QUOTE]
