I'm now having doubts about the T - it might even be Ffoty or something like that  :-\

Ok - I give up on that one. I  think that maybe a look through the cenus pages for Llanwinio  might be the best way forward with it.

Thanks Roy. Which census is that?

Thanks Gadget. I'm not sure I can see that one myself, but I value the options  :)

just thought to search by address on the 1881 and living in Ffosyffwrn was none other than James Griffiths b. Mydrim formerly carpenter.
RG11/5401 folio 111 pg 8

His address in 1851 was Vrondeg in Llanwinio HO107/2474 folio 364 pg 13 and he'd moved to Ffosyffwrn by 1861 RG9/4145 folio 83 pg 8. Does that fit with the date of the marriage?
