In 1871, George has yet another wife.

According to Ancestry, Georg Watkin Wolden, 26, wife Adelaide, 25, born Belfast, and daughter Ada Gretwide Wolden, 4, are living in Llandidloes, Montgomeryshire. They're boarders in the house of a builder and innkeeper called Evan Williams.

Looks like George was a busy man in Belfast.

thanks again Mary.

My head is reeeling so I'm off to bed. Tomorrow I will do a timeline so that I have some sort of grasp of who was up to what with whom and when.

They certainly took after their father, did George and John.

That's interesting, thanks Jess. There was an O'Neill on the other side of the family, but maybe just coincidence?

I can see one child born of the Midas/McNeill marriage. Wonder what happened to them?

Archibald Charles McNeill died Jul-Sep 1974 in Stratton district, which ancestry says is in Cornwall. Date of birth 20 May 1926 which would (only just) fit with a registration in the Jul-Sep quarter and there are no other Archibald McNeills born in the Apr-Jun or Jul-Sep quarter so I reckon it's him.

It looks as though Midas and her husband emigrated to Australia as they appear on the e rolls over there.

Found them on a passenger list on FMP - Mr C McNeill, age 55, builder's labourer, and Mrs M M McNeill age 62 travelling from Southampton to Australia on the Asturias 23 Nov 1950.
