[Ayjay228]

Need some help in finding the Edwards family in Llanelly in 1851 and 1861.

Ann EDWARDS married my g.gfather in 1864, she was 23, her father was Evan, and they lived in Church Street. So, in 1861 there should be some record of:

Evan EDWARDS   (age ?)   Head (or Widower)  Blacksmith
?              (age ?)              Wife ?
Ann  dtr (20)

Census information from 1851 woud be helpful too!

Many Thanks in Advance

Hi Sue

Many thanks for this information. It appears to be the right family, but I'll check into further details; (yet another Sarah, William and David to look into....)   

Ann didn't appear in the 1861 Census so I'm wondering whether she was a domestic servant in Church Street?  This is possible as my g.gfather was from a factory-working-class background.  Elizabeth also left before 1861 too!

Anyway, thanks again, this has been really helpful.

Regards
