I'm trying to get in touch with ancestors of my great-grandparents, John Ashton and Martha Ormond Ashton Williams.
He was born abt 1861 in Wales (poss. Montgomeryshire), son of Thomas Ashton and Jane ?
He married Martha Ormond (b. abt 1863 Pembrokeshire, Wales) on abt 28 Sep 1880 in Wales. Between March 1886 - Jan 1889, he and Martha immigrated to the USA (poss. Pennsylvania).
By 1891, Martha was a widow, back in Wales. In 1898, she married John Williams. In 1906, (again a widow), she immigrated to Canada with her step-children, Robert R. Williams and Flossie Jane Williams. After the 1911 Canadian (New Brunswick) census, they immigrated to PA, where she died 20 Feb 1916 in Butler, PA.
I'd love to hear from any Ashton or Ormond/Williams descendants.
p.s. Martha's parents were William Ormond and Margaret Evans, both born in Wales
