Flintshire / Where is 'Gerddi'
« on: Monday 05 December 16 19:52 GMT (UK) »
The 1881 census has the address of 1, Gerddi, Rhuddlan (Flint) St Asaph, Denbighshire, Wales.
Ref: RG11,piece 5528, folio 18 page 1.
It is the home of John Edward Jones aged 29 born in Llangynog and a collector for fire act insurance.
With him is his wife and 3 children.
I have always thought that it was part of Millbank Road in Rhyl, but now I'm not sure. I think that Rhyl was still part of Rhuddlan, at this time, hence the address above. Why is Denbighshire shown in the address?
This family did settle in Rhyl and appear in subsequent censuses in Clwyd Street.
Please if anyone has the local knowledge to pinpoint the address, I would appreciate it.
Thank you...Eldon.
