My Grandmother-Margaret Thomas
« on: Wednesday 28 October 09 15:36 UTC (UK) »
Hi, if anyone has access to 1891 census, could they look up my Grandmother-Margaret Thomas born 1887 in Briton Ferry, Near Neath. Names of other siblings that I know of were Blodwin and Fred. Father was called David and a steelworker.  Would like to know any other siblings and address on census.  The address I have is 64, New Hunter Street, Briton Ferry, but think they moved there early 1900's,
Thanks,

Diana

Hi Viv,

Thank you for all your trouble.  I think the Margaret Thomas you sent me is the one, as I know she was born in Briton Ferry in roughly 1887.  It says on her marriage certificate that she was 20 in 1907, when she got married.  Did it say the name of the Mother and Father?  I know her Father's name was David (from her marriage certificate)and he was a steel worker.

Thanks once again,

Diana

Hi Dina,

sorry about the late reply.

No, there was no mention of Margaret's mother or father.  Maybe she was took in by the family and saw the head of this family ie. David as her father?
