William Bevan - completed

[Dannemois]

I have located William Bevan on the 1871C, for Brithdir, Gelligaer, aged 42, miner, born Mynysddlwyn.  Wife named as Alice, aged 39, born Llanblethian.

Would appreciate help in locating the marriage and earlier census for William.

In 1871 living next door to William and family is David Beaven age 30 Coal miner born Mynyddyslwyn Monmouth possibly brother?
Found a possible family that fits in 1841

So the Mary Bevan visiting William in 1861 census was his sister.I cant read the birthplace of John in 1851?Ancestry has it as Llangeslach it could be Llangyfelach?Will try to find him in 1861.
