1870 census Pennsylvania
« on: Sunday 21 June 09 15:23 UTC (UK) »

Please could someone do a look up for me ?

I am looking for John R Davies who emmigrated to Pennslyvania around 1868, his birthplace was given as Wales, in 1843, I have him in the 1880 living with his wife Clara and children Harry Reed +Clara L
I am hoping that the 1870 will give more idea of his parentage.


Thank you for your interest, best wishes Bethan

No I have not been able to find him in the 1900, but by then he was living in Arkansas, his eldest child was born in PA and the younger one in IL, I was hoping that if I could find him on the earlier census I might get an idea of his parents names.

Thank you for taking an interest, I realise with a name like Davies it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, so it has been very kind of you to help me.

About to go to bed, so will just give references, maybe someone else can transcribe them for you

1900 Census Page 1B ED 38 Dry Fork, Carroll, Arkansas

1910 Census Page 13B ED 57 Dry Fork, Carroll, Arkansas

Did have a look at 1870, decided to check 1900 up to see if it would help

Good Luck

You can seen the 1870 & 1900 Census here:  http://labs.familysearch.org/  The 1900 said he & Clara had been married for 29 years, so he may have been single as of 1870.  If he was age 25 when he immigrated, then I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't with his parents in 1870.

Hi Mick ad Shelley, thanks a lot for all your help, managed to look at the 1870 and 1900, but was unable to find the 1910,  could not glean anymore information from the 1870 as he seemed to be living on his own, to be truthful I have not quite got the hang of how to see the whole census form for a household.

But thank you both so much for all your help, you have been very kind

Once you find the entry you want to see, click where it says "View image" towards the top.
