Title: Lookup request Edward Milward from Pentyrch
Post by: Emma Hughes on Thursday 02 July 15 12:51 BST (UK)
Hello everyone (:

I have come to a stop trying to trace the Milward family. I have Edward Milward b.about 1813 in Pentyrch. He appears on the 1841 census with his wife Gwenllian living in Pentyrch. Their children Jane, Edward, Susannah, Ann, Eliza, Sarah and John.

Both say they were born in Pentyrch but I cant either of their parents or families. Can anyone find parents for them? I believe the wife was originally Gwenllian Llewellyn as there is a marriage between her and an Edward Milward in 1831.

Many thanks for any information you can gather. Short of going down to the records office I am stuck

There was a Gwanlian? Lewellin Bapt in the same parish 12 Jan 1810 - Parents David and Gwonlian?

Hi Kay, thank you so much for looking.
Edward and Gwenllian had Jane, Edward, susannah, ann, Eliza, Sarah and John.

Yes that's what I came up with for the wife, the 1810 baptism. Does this mean that the records of Edward Millard and forebears would have been damaged or lost?
