William Thomas, Five Roads, Llanelly 1891?
« on: Wednesday 09 August 17 23:34 BST (UK) »
Hi--
    Looking for this family in 1891 Census.
Here they are in 1881--Five Roads, Hengoed, Llanell:

William Thomas      Head       34       Coalminer          b. Llanelly
Hannah       "          Wife         31                                      "
Mary           "          Daur         8       Scholar                      "
Thomas       "          Son          6           "                           "
John            "          Son          4                                       "   
Lettuce        "          Daur         1                                       "

William may have died prior to 1891. they may have moved to Glamorgan--not sure.
Looking for them in 1891.
Thanks.

I can't easily spot them in 1891. At least I can't find Let*ce born around 1880 (I decided to focus on her as she has the most unusual name). I can't see a death for her which fits between 1881 and 1891 either.

What leads you to believe William may have died before 1891, and that they may have moved to Glamorgan?

Thanks for looking. Someone who is a possible
descendant mentioned that William died before 1891.
I have tried to contact him (the relative)--no answer.
He also said that there were 2 other daughters
born in the 1880s--Hannah (1886) & Anne (1888).
Not sure about Glamorgan. Thanks again for
checking.

If it's true that William did die, it is possible that Hannah remarried. I will have another look for the family in 1891 with the new children's names in mind. :)

Added: No, sorry Stephen, I can't find the family, even just searching for "let*ce" born around 1880 ....

I hope someone else can help you.  :-\

William Thomas 53
Mary Ann  "       48
Gwladys    "       24
Letitia        "      21

The 1891 Census is correct. The 1911 is a different family. Thank you for checking.
