Some of my ancestors were coal miners...and most of them were in the Swansea/Morriston area.  For my great grandfather in question the census information indicates he lived in the Clase Higher area.

My great grandfathers occupation is listed as Making Vitrol (Alkali Wk).  I'm not exactly sure what that entails.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I have a great Aunt  (Hannah Davies) approximate birth year of 1860.  She was born in Morriston to David and Ann Davies.  Her younger brother Rees Davies is my grandfather.  I found them on the 1871 Wales Census (civil parish Llangyfelach & town of Chase).  I don't know much more about her, but wondered if she is the wife of David Rees.  Did the marriage certificate identify her parents?

Good luck & Happy New Year

I'm trying to find some information on my great grand parents:

David Davies
Estimated Birth Year: 1829
Born: Gorscinon
Civil Parish:  Llangyfelch
Town: Clase

Ann (wife)
Estimated Birth Year: 1823

Children:  David, Hannah, John, Mary, Rees (grandfather), Ruth

Looking to find a marriage certificate and or Ann's maiden name and David's parents names


My maternal great grand parents were  Rees Rees and Hannah (Jones) Rees, both born around 1824.  Hannah was born in Llanon.  Rees and Hannah's children were; Catherine, David, Deborah (Grand-mother), Elias, Hannah, John, Morgan, William.  I was also hoping to learn the parents name(s) for both Rees & Hannah.


Any assistance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Dave
