FORDs in Wales
« on: Sunday 08 March 15 13:21 GMT (UK) »
William Ford b 1854
have conflicting records of birth place.  Parents: George Ford and Eleanor (Ellen) Male.

1854 - Shoreditch Middlesex
or
1854 Duxton Pembrokeshire, but Duxton does not seem to be a place in Wales

Can anybody do a birth lookup and census lookup 1861 & 1871

The familys do tend to hop over the border quite a lot from Bristol area

Thanks

1871 Same family I think living at Merthyr -   William's birth looks like Huxton with the following word badly written - Huxton maybe should be Hoxton  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoxton  image below

George Ford 47 Bristol Engine Fitter
Ellen Ford    42 Burronton Somerset
Wm Ford    17
Elizabeth Ford 12
Mary A Ford 10
Julia Ford    8
Mary Jane Ford 4
