I have found out just this last weekend a whole branch of the Jones family which I didn't know existed.  Ann Jones, b. 1856 in Earlestown Lancashire seems to disappear from 1861 census, never to be seen again,  I did find a death in 1863 for an Ann Jones and presumed it could have been her.
Quite by chance on the Newton le Willows website I saw an article by a man called Keith Bowen about his great grandmother Ann Jones, daughter of Abel Jones 1819 and from checking what he wrote and the information I had, put two and two together and found what I was looking for.
It's very frustrating on ancestry when people make private the information about living persons, but there are ways around it.
So now I know Ann Jones didn't die in 1865, she in fact married James Gorrie from Edinburgh, lived in Wigan and died in 1907.
Now I need to know if Abel Jones, as quoted by Keith Bowen, did teach music at the local approved school, even if only part time and this will be the icing on the cake.
