"Wrong" Image of "Ancestry"
« on: Sunday 07 December 14 14:41 GMT (UK) »
In 1861 at ref:  RG9; Piece: 4332; Folio: 71; Page: 15 "Ancestry" has an "Elin Evans, 19, Aberdaron, son".

Unfortunately, on "Ancestry", the images appear to be completely out of sync for this area ( :( ) and I'm not able to check the Original.

I'd be grateful if someone with a different source would check the entry for me.

On FindMyPast it reads Elin Evans, age 19, Unmarried, House Servant, born Aberdaron. It appears the transcriber has copied the entry from above for David Rice Watkins who is actually the son of the head of the house Jane Watkins.

Kind Regards,

Ellen
