Hi Roy
Here they are in 1861
RG9. P. 4049 Fol. 19 Pg. 1
Rhondda Rd. Llanwonno
VEAL
Francis Head M 24 Collier B. Stone, Somerset
Harriet Wife M 25 B. Easthorptree, Somerset
Alfred Son 4 B. Llanwonno, Glam
I suspect they weren't married in 1851 - I'll see what I can find.

This looks like Francis' family in 1851:
HO107. P.1938 Fol. 148 P. 9
Stoney Mill, Stowey, Somt.
VEAL
Francis Head M 49 Ag Lab B. Somt. Knighton Sutton
Hester Wife M 44 B. Somt. Chew Magna
Francis Son 12 B. Somt. Sutton
Christiana Dau 11 B. Somt. ? ?
Martha Dau 9 B. Somt. Stowey
John Son 7 ~ ~
Mary Dau 5 ~ ~
George Son 11 mths. ~ ~
I looked for a marriage for Francis Veal between 1851 and 1861 with a Harriet on the page and found:
Francis Veal married Q1. 1857 Merthyr Tydfil Vol. 11a Pg. 371
Harriet Farrow on the page
I'll now go see if I can find a matching Harriet Farrow b. 1834 in Somerset.

all born county.
I can't see father in 1851, although Joanna says married.
However, there is a Benj. Farr aged 65 Wid. living in Kingston, Surrey. Says just B. Somersetshire.

With help from Gadget - it seems possible - only possible, mind - that Elizabeth in 1871 was this family:
1871 :RG10. P. 5329 Fol. 21 Pg. 2
9 Clarence Row, Bedwelty
JONES
Edward Head M 56 Miner
Mary Wife M 47
John Son Un 27 Miner
David Son Un 24 Collier
Mary Dau Un 22 Drawing trams Pidworth Mine
Edward Son Un 20 Collier
Elizabeth Dau 14 Picking slags Mardy Coal Pit
Richard Son 11 Collier
Those in blue were born Monmouth, Rhymney, the others all born Cardiganshire, Aberystwyth
This is the closest we could get - and is based only on them living in Bedwelty, were the marriage took place. Best you get Elizabeth and Alfred's marriage certificate and check her father's details ;D

Thanks MUM

Hi roy. By some strange coincidence we seem to be looking at the same family. The veales. Do you have any info onthem living in bargoed. If so i may be on the right track. Regards lyndon

Hi Lyndonv
First I have to say I am not related to the Veale family. I became interested in Albert Veale whilst researching the WW1 soldiers of the village of Brithdir and I use the census as a means of background information. This is what I wrote about Albert.
Albert Veale, Private 1700, Welch Regiment, 2nd Battalion was killed in action on 14 July 1915. He was the son of coalminer Alfred Veale and wife Elizabeth of 10 James Street, Brithdir. Francis Veal, agricultural labourer of Stone, Somerset was responsible for the Veale [Veal] family migrating to Wales. He came to the Rhondda Valley where he found work as a collier and where is first born son Alfred was born. Alfred married Elizabeth Jones of Rhymney in 1878 and typical of that era the birthplace of ones children reflects the movement in search of work. Beaufort, New Tredegar, Hopkinston, and Pontypridd are the towns and villages where Albert Veale and his siblings were born.
Regards, Roy

Old thread but just came across it
Harriet was my 4th time great aunt and a few of her family also end up down in the Valleys her nephew John is down in Mountain Ash and in 1901 they have a boarder James Vowle - which now I'm wondering if they are actually a Veale

Hi can anyone get any information concerning the family of Albert vales family. As I think my grandfather john veale from barged were related. Can't really remember him as he died when I was very young. His wife name was Mary, and they had 2 sons. Les and my father Roy. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Lyndon.
