Welsh coal miners, Griffiths
Can anyone can help me with my research of my Griffiths.I know very little about this family, and all attempts have been unsuccessful, but they did end up in King County.The father is Thomas Griffiths, born in Wales in abt 1837. I do not know the name of the wife, but she supposedly died in 1900 in New Castle, WA.Their children were: John, born 1862 or 63,buried in Enumclaw; Tom; Hannah (McCall) born abt. 1871 in CA.; Susan (Garrett) born abt. 1868 or 69 in CA.believed to be buried in Enumclaw; Sarah (Whitehouse) born in Marysville, CA. in 1873, buried in Enumclaw; Bill, born abt. 1866 in CA.; and Bob, born ???, died 1917.Apparently this family was first in Ohio, then in California, and then went to New Castle, Washington, in the 1880s.Thomas and his son Tom were coal miners, and both were killed in mining accidents.Are there any Griffiths out there who recognize this family???Tom [email protected]
