Hi

Bedwelty was just the registration district and covered a much wider area

http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/bedwelty.html

The 1901 has an Albert W Jones b Talywain and living in Abersychan but Talywain was not included in Bedwelty

There are 10 entries for just Albert Jones - several of whom were born in areas covered by Bedwelty

It is too easy to go down the wrong path with a surname like Jones so I would recommend you buy a copy of his birth cert

Hi tinad

FreeBMD has a reference of Sep Q 1897, Bedwelty, vol 11a page 64 for the birth of an Albert William H Jones.     However there is also an Albert Jones registered in Dec Q.
 
Free BMD has a reference of  Sep Q 1921, Crickhowell, vol  11b page 179 for Albert's  marriage which would give you his father's name as a checking point for the birth certificate.
