Who was the mother of William Davies?
When was William born?

It looks like a good fit but was Henry's son William born to an earlier wife? Most subsequent records have William born about 1847.

The only 1861 possibility that I found for William was him as a Farmer ser(vant) living in Llanegwad with Elinor Williams, 49 farmer at Tyrbach.
