General Notes:
Sarah Jane Williams born 24 May 1872 as per the Family Bible Sarah J Williams aged 8 and a scholar was living at 23 Herbert St Ystradyfodwg, Glamorgan, Wales in the 1881 census "Mary, b. 1 March 1837.(Sarah Jane' mother) Lived in Treorci. Son, John, and two daughters, one of whom m. Rees, milkman (their son was Dai Rees, Treorci, d. February 1963)"*
There are a number of records of a Sarah Jane Williams marring a Rees in Glamorgan starting in 1887 Cardiff, 1889 Swansea, 1891 Merthyr T, 1893 Merthyr T, 1900, Swansea and Merthyr T, 1903 Merthyr T and 1906 Swansea. There are no records of a Dai Rees but a number of Davids and a Dewi (1913) with parents Williams and Rees born in Glamorgan between 1912 and 1920. The search was 1885 - 1920.
"We got a letter from his (Edward's (E. Mc....... 5051 9 Regiment Sportsman Battalion Army P.O.Kilindini)) mother and what do you think she told us. Willie Williams antie S Jane's son (Pa's sister)(Harold was called Pa) is in German E.A. She did not know with what reginement .... He is quite young too and younger than you dear."** This suggests Sarah Jane was called Jane and had a child out of wedlock called Willie.
