Rees Davies 1843-1861Death

[Palma28]

Looking for my great great grandfathers death. He was married at St Sannan Bedwellty 1840 on the 3rd February to Jane Davies he was a collier. Address listed on wedding certificate Pontaberpengam for both.  His last child was born 1844 and his wife is listed widow on 1851 Census. His fathers name James listed as a Gardner. His birth on 1841 census approx. 1798. Any help appreciated greatly.  Paley

Index shows 5 Rees Davies dying between 1844 and 1851 in Abergavenny Registration District.
Unfortunately for that era ages at death are not shown in the index.

Rowley tks for reply , yes I know it's Rees Davies and Jane richards just oversight , frustrated trying to find a death date for Rees. I had trouble finding a birth certificate for their daughter Catherine born fleur de lis.

The only Rees Davies that fits was born 1797 buried aged 45 yrs in 1842 at Blaenavon-Llanfoist
The rest were much older or younger than him, Best wishes Rowley

Re Rees Davies death 1842? As last child born 1844 still census are rough ages. Re getting death cetrtificate how much information is on it to warrant cost of ordering one. Would appreciate advice if worthwhile many thanks for your time .

Hi Palma, It will have the registration District, Date and usually place, Person's name, which Sex, Age, Occupation, Cause of death, Name and Relationship to deceased, When Registered, Registrar's Name.
I don't think it has changed much over the years, best wishes Rowley
