I looked through the Census all along Rake Lane,and the only Elizabeth Morris born in Denbighshire was a 14 year old Servant from Chirk Denbighshire.Chirk is a village only about four miles from where I live.On Ancestry you are able to put in an Occupation for someone for the 1881 Census,and there were only two Stonemasons listed as John Morris born in Denbighshire,in England and Wales.

You're right, William.  All this time I thought I got Liscard from the census-  but I got it from Harriette's birth cert!  The birth was registered in 1885.  So that means they were somewhere else in 1881.  hmmmmm... that opens up all kinds of new possibilities.
After I got the cert. I went through the entire 1881 for Liscard picking out all the Morris/Hughes names.  Probably why I thought that's where I got it.  Old age stinks.
You're a wonder, William!  Thanks  Joan
