An Overview

The Jones's trace back to Glamorgan, but were living in Blaina, Monmouthshire at the time of the 1861 Census.  They moved to Middlesbrough, when the Steel Industry was in its infancy in the 1870's.

County Tyrone, Northern Ireland and Co.Wexford, Ireland form the origins of the McKenna line, who like the Jones's found themselves in Middlesbrough in the 1880's, also working in the Steel Industry.

Penryn Jones married Freda Lack, whose family originated from Yardley Hastings in Northamptonshire, where a large number of Lacks still live to the present day.

John McKenna married Isabella Dixon, whose grandparents have been traced back to the Gateshead and Teesdale areas.
