I Aberdare you to find this lady!
« on: Friday 23 September 16 18:50 BST (UK) »
Eleanor born 1839/40 Dowlais, Merthyr Tydfil is in Aberdare 1871, 1901 but cannot find her in the two census in between!

Her family tree is attached as a picture. The mind boggles with the bewildering number of partners, disappearing kids and husbands.

I have her marriage certificate to Jenkins and her kids' marriage certificates.

Hi

It would be helpful to us if you would type out the details as it is not always easy to read handwriting or to have to go backwards and forwards across your post to see all the info

Agreed - does it say George Monk disappeared?

Must agree with the other's if you write things out and make it a bit clearer you might get a better response .. It is a bit hard to follow  :) :)

A reasonable candidate in 1891 is Ellen Jenkins,born Dowlais 1840,a (married) boarder with David and Prudence Morse,Ynyscynon Street,Aberdare.She has a daughter Mary(born 1881) with her.

RG12/4446/115/10

Given that her daughter is given born 1881,Trealaw,Glamorgan,you would think this would help locate Eleanor-but not so far!

Roger
