I am trying to find and order the birth certificate of my gg-grandfather Joseph Davies born between 1845 and 1848.
From the evidence below, I am pretty sure that I should be able to find an entry for Joseph between 1845 and 1848 to order his certificate but I am unable to find it. Any help would be much appreciated.
The Parish baptisms register of 1845 has a Joseph Davies born to Griffith & Mary on July 20th living at Pen Uchaf y Lan (I was hoping this would be Winllan!)
In the 1851 census he is recorded as age 6 (could be 4) living at Winllan (indicating birth 1845 (or 1847) in Bettws
In the 1861 census he is recorded as 16 living at Winllan with his mother as Head (indicating birth 1845 in Bettws)
In the 1871 census (April) I have Joseph working at Caenog, Gwyddelwern as a Farm labourer aged 24 (indicating birth 1847 in Bettws)
From his marriage certificate to Harriet Davies in 1871 at The Parish Church, Gwyddelwern his father is shown as Griffith Davies (Farmer). Joseph is living at Winllan and is shown as “full age”.
In the 1881 census he is recorded as age 34 (indicating birth 1847 in Bettws GG).
In the 1891 census he is recorded as age 44 (indicating birth 1847 in Bettws GG)
In the 1901 census he is recorded as age 53 (indicating birth 1848 in Bettws GG)
In the 1911 census he is recorded as age 66 (indicating birth 1845 in Bettws)
From after his marriage until his death in 1918 he is living at Tynllechwedd, Gwyddelwern (where my Mother, Nan, and g-grandfather were all born)
I have previously ordered the certificate for a Joseph Davies born in 1844 but this did not have the correct parents.
Thank you again for any help that can be given.
