1841-51-61 census lookup - Llanfihangel Abercowin or Meidrim

[sesd]

I am looking for the family of David Walters b. in 1837- 1838 in Llanfihangel Abercowin. I have found him later with wife and family in Meidrim, but don't know his parents. Can anyone please find them for me on the early census records.

Thanks, Sharon

I have checked Meidrim Parish Church Baptisms John Walters wasnt baptised there.Also have Carmarthenshire Marriages on Disc John and Rosamond didnt marry in Carmarthenshire before registration in 1837.So would send  to Carmarthenshire registry office for the marriage cert 1837-1839 Rosamond not that popular a name so you might hit lucky without the full ref nos.

Thank you so much. Mu family will be delighted to have a new generation of ancestors. The name Rosamund was also used for one of David's daughters.

Welsh Lady, I found Castell-y-waun, it is just east of St. Clears.

Is there a chance you can find John and Rosamund at Castell-y-waun in 1871 as well?

In 1881, John is still alive, so I don't know why Rosamund is listed as Head without him in 1861.

Also, another request: David's wife was Sarah Jones, born 1837-1838 in Conwil Elfet. Does she show up there with a family in 1841-51-61?

Rosamond Walters,Head,Mar,58,Farmer 80 acres,Carms
Joseph Walters,Son,26,Carms
Samuel Walters,Son,22,Carms
Margaret Davies,Dau,Mar,20,Carms
and 3 servants

Looks like John was working away or visiting away in 1861 and 1871 census will look if i can find him and will look for Sarah Jones  do you know her Fathers name?

Possible in 1851

Anna? Jones,Wife,44,Abernant,Carms
Sarah Jones,Dau,12,Conwil
Henry Jones,Son,7,Abernant,Carms

Youd need Sarah and Davids marriage cert to confirm Sarahs Father name to see if above family is correct.
