Title: 1861 census glamorgan needed
Post by: alyson on Sunday 09 January 05 21:58 GMT (UK)
This is my first time on this site recomended by a GenesReunited member.

I am looking for missing husband / father of the following.
Elizabeth Reece born c1836 in Aberdare.
Children born then would be Mary Jane born: 1859 Penmark
 Possibly Catherine born : 1861 Penmark.   I have 1871 census but husband / father not listed.  The family were living in Penmark in 1871. Any help would be appreciated.

                                              Thankyou

I have looked in the 1851 census for you and there are many Rees entries for the Penmark and Porthkerry area, nothing which looks to be definately this family though.
