1911 census

[Milliepede]

I'm guessing Howell and Margaret are the parents because they would be the posters grandparents?  Aunt May being a sister to the posters mother.

That's a good find osprey, that marriage fits.

You are correct . May is my mother Eirwen’s sister. Phoebe Jane also , in the obituary for Phoebe Jane Enoch my late mother Eirwen was down as sister to the desceased .So that confirms that Howell Davies and Margaret Williams are the parents. Hope this clears it up and that I have the correct family, also I visited the Enoch family in Wattstown. Eirwen

Thanks eirwen.  Does the obituary offer any more clues about family members? 

I take it no mention of May sister to the deceased.   

Any unknown nieces or nephews or in laws mentioned that could relate to May?

Sorry I'm confusing things again  I was thinking May in 1891 census was the right family but it's the 1901 census. 

If only we could find her in 1911.

Hi think Sarah (Edith) aged 19 b Cockett is shown as Niece with a William Henry Lee and wife Phoebe in Barry
Marriage William Henry Lee to Phoebe Jane Williams Sept qtr 1897 Cardiff 11a 538
Phoebe b Solva
Keyboard86

EDIT in 1901 William H and Phoebe J have a widowed Sarah Jane Williams aged 64 b Solva in household
Census ref RG13/4992/140/26

PS why have I looked up William H and Phoebe before??

[Deirdre784]

In case it helps..... There’s a Phoebe Jame (as transcribed by FindMyPast) Davies, in 1901 in New Rd, Waunarlwydd, Cockett, Swansea. Age given as 11, so a few years out, born Whitland, Carms. Niece to John Jones, widower.

RG13 5068 68 40

Edited to add.... i have found what looks to be the same Phoebe Jane (born Whitland, age 21), on the 1911, now in the Rhondda.

Edited again (sorry, going round in circles with this puzzle).... Apologies, have found the likely birth of this Phoebe Jane, mother Harries, in Narberth (covers Whitland), in March quarter 1890. Enough for me i think. Good luck!

All the information which you have located with regard to my Davies family is correct. I know Griffith died after 6weeks.  (Death certificate) the others were Mary Ann (aunt Nan) Sarah, Ivor, Pheobe Jane,  May, and the last was Eirwen(my mother) all except my mother born in Swansea. Eirwen born Blaenllechau. So only one child is missing believe born and died between 1895-1903 have not found this record Plus never found births of Pheobe Jane or May. Again thank you for all your assistance. Eirwen
