searching just on Dorothy as there aren't too many of them, I found this family. Wonder if they are wrongly enumerated? Do you have Ann's birth cert to check address?

Mount Pleasant, Llanelly HO107/2468 folio 293 pg 17
John Jones head mar 25 labourer b. Pembs, Robeston
Dorothy wife 27 b. Pembs, Castle Beith
Sarah Anne dau 2 b. Llanelly

Robeston is about 3 miles from Milford Haven, and Castle Beith about 10 from Haverfordwest. She is the only Dorothy of around that age born in Pembrokeshire, but living in Carmarthenshire,

Hi osprey

That certainly looks like them as I have not had any luck before in 1851.
 Ann was born in llanelly so looks very good.
Thankyou so much.
