1861 Census (ref RG09 4333 50  6) 
Griffith William, 69; Ellin, 69 and Catherine, 28 are still at "Tyarymuria, Meillteyrn" in 1861. Griffith's occupation is "Farmer".

John describes his father's occpn as "labourer" which doesn't really fit with the above's description - both in 1841 and 1861.

Tyn Muriau has only a few acres of land,perhaps he went out to work and also farmed at home,are they there in1871 and 1881?
