Title: 1891 Look-up GRIFFITHS [Glamorgan]
Post by: MarMnkly on Thursday 27 July 06 19:10 BST (UK)

Hello, please can you help me find a family in the 1891 census?

I am trying to find Aaron Griffiths and his wife [think she's called Margaret] and son Thomas Price Griffiths aged 1 year.

I know that Thomas' birth was registered in Merthyr Tydfil in 1890 and I am hoping they are still in the area for the 1891 census.

thankyou
MarMnkly :)

Hi Osprey, I think there's a good chance thats them!
The age of Thomas matches and so does the occupation of Aaron that I have from 1911 when they were still living in Dowlais.

thanks for your help - this helps me track Aaron back a bit further

Margaret :)
