Hang in there - I have found your family.

This took forever without his birth year which I eventually found just before you posted it.

Back in a tick

Hi, It is most important that you post all information from any known census records. This family was mistranscribed in 1871 and almost impossible to find on your original information.

Here goes.......

1871

No address recorded. Living Eglwysilan Glamorgan

 Daniel Llewellyn  1831  Llanwonno, Glamorgan, Wales Head Wood Cutter    
Ann  1831  Merthyr-Tydfil, Glamorgan, Wales Wife    
Daniel 1869  Merthyr-Tydfil, Glamorgan, Wales Son    
Evan 1858  Merthyr-Tydfil, Glamorgan, Wales Son Wood Cutter 
Jemina 1856  Merthyr-Tydfil, Glamorgan, Wales Daughter    
Mary Ann  1867  Merthyr-Tydfil, Glamorgan, Wales Daughter       
William 1860  Merthyr-Tydfil, Glamorgan, Wales Son 

Transcribed on the Index as Llewsllin

This census entry is very difficult to read so I would take Daniel's birthplace with a pinch of salt!!!!

Thank you Tricia for the information. I would never have thought of looking for a LLEWELLYN spelt the way you discovered it LLewsllin. So now I have 4 different places of birth and at least 2 different spellings of his surname. No wonder I cannot find his marriage to a Ann Davies about I believe  1855 in the Merthyr Tydfil area. Would like to thank everyone who e-mailed me information , it is very much appreciated.

Hi,

Have just replied to your message.

Just to emphasize what I said - birth year and birthplace if known are vital - then you can do a search on first name ,age and birth area  and hopefully that will bring him up somewhere with the name spelt incorrectly.   Too long winded to try and guess how they spelt his name.

Hope this makes sense,

Have fun, Tricia
