1841/51 Census please - Llanelly
« on: Wednesday 28 November 12 15:09 GMT (UK) »
Grateful for look-up on these two Census. Margaret Howell (nee David) b. 1808 married to Hector Howell b.1809.
Believe married 1835 Llanelly. Trying to establish children.
Margaret may have put birthplace as Llandarrog or Llanelly.
Nothing known of Hector.
Many thanks, Syljun

Thanks Doran 54, Seems strange but given info. of 1861 Census the relationships did not quite add up.
Would you be a star and check the 1861 Census please in full if you can. I would be grateful evermore. This family confuses me. Grateful for your help. Syljun

Hi, According to Family search there was a daughter Ann b. 1838. Missing from family on 1851 Census.Would have been 13yrs 
Could you check on her please - Ann Howell b. 1838 Llanelly. Or am I being too cheeky.
Hopefully Syljun Thank you.

Thank you both. Takes some sorting this family due to surname David sometimes Davies but very happy to find my 4xGrt. GRandmother Elizabeth David age 92. Hopefully to make it easier to purchase D/Cert. I don't think she made it on 1871 Census.
Regards,
Syljun
