I'm not sure about the age gap - there's a death announcement for Mrs Elizabeth Plummer of Llanhilleth in 1879, aged 95. The 1841 & 1851 would have her as about 83 in that year
Mabel where can I find the death announcement please.

Hi again her burial was as Elizabeth PLUMER 14th April 1879 Bedwelty aged 95 abode Llanhilleth

There is an Elizabeth Plummer age 63 at Trevethin in 1851. Wife of James, whose age on the image looks to be 37 and has been transcribed as such

This Elizabeth in 1851 was living at Abersychan there is a burial 30th September 1860 Abersychan for an Elizabeth Plummer aged 72

FreeReg has this baptism
Mary Plummer
baptized 26 March 1839 Bedwellty
Father William Plummer, a collier, mother Rebecca Edwards
Living at Manmoel

This baptism is odd, all others I have noted have e.g. Mary Daughter of, John Son of etc, in this case it is Mary then something underneath, Daughter of William Plummer occ Collier and Rebecca Edwards

1841 for a Rebecca?

Rebecca Edwards 35 Not born in county,  plus a lodger perhaps
Residing at Manmoel Village
Census ref HO107/750/ 7/5/ 2

Hi Keyboard,
baptism in 1839 says "Reputed daughter of Wm Plummer and Rebecca Edwards".
1841 for Rebecca very possible as the Plummers were at Manmoel then.

She's next door but one to William Plummer (20)

:) Well at least you admit a misread census/thoughts for Jane /Martha 1861, so?  where is Martha Francis in 1871 onwards, and death/remarriage for Jane Thomas nee Plummer?

Maybe the baptism records you/we require have not been transcribed yet?

Hi again, it would assist at least me if you can respond with your thoughts to all replies rather than just the last one ;D

Hi Keyboard,
Some of the suggestions / thoughts need further research / evaluation on my part, and I need time to do that.
I try to reply quickly to any that I can from what I know or think I know.
I'll take your comment on board and try to improve.
All the help from you and others is greatly appreciated.

Thanks crisane, I don't have any James in my Plummers.
Looks like he and Elizabeth came over from Somerset, as did a lot of Plummers, but I haven't linked them to my family.
By the way could James be 87 on the census?
