Title: 1891 David DAVIES in Barry Dock
Post by: Kiwi007 on Tuesday 15 March 05 12:29 GMT (UK)
I'm looking for David Davies b about 1865 GLAM aged 26 in 1891, hopefully married to a Margaret b about 1866 Llantrisant GLA - aged 25 in 1891.

They should be living in Barry or Barry Dock. David was a  coach driver in 1901 and had 3 children - born after the census.

If anyone can help with an 1891 look up, I would be most grateful

Kind regards
Jocelyn

Hi Chris,

Thanks so much for that look up - I think we have the correct family ( just need to find the guy in 1881 now - a likely candidate is a David David - grrr), however, I am wondering if you could check the fellows first name - was it Davis or David??
There are sooo many Davies about its really a nightmare.

Thanks ever so much

Jocelyn
