Title: 1861/71 census lookup please Llansantffraid
Post by: canniffe on Saturday 24 September 05 11:45 BST (UK)
I would be very grateful for a lookup for David Davies born approx. 1833 in Llanddoget or Llansantfraid. On 1881 census he was farming at Bron y feriath, Llansantffraid.  His eldest children include Catherine and Robert.
Thank you

Eventually found them by looking for Josiah (the most unusual name).  It is really helpful if you can list the whole family's details when asking for a search.  :)

Thank you SO much.  I have spent a fortune on Ancestry looking for them without success.
Best wishes ,

Josiah Davies is my great grandfather. He moved to South Wales with his family.
