Hi Ricky,
yes I think it's them.Eliza Jane I think must have died before 1881.Unfortunately the 1881 census doesn't give Richard Morgan's  place or date of birth which would have been handy.

Hi Trisha

I carn't pinpoint Elizabeth on the 1871 to be certain of the right one

Hi Ricky,
Sounds very much like them.Thanks for  that.
Going back to Richard Morgan's birthplace from 1871.I can't find Lieforial on a map.Any idea where it might be or  could be a mispelling of.If this was Lincolnshire or Bedfordshire I'ld get it straight away but I have no luck with Welsh place names.

Hi Trisha

Just been back to the 1871 for Richard Morgan, his place of birth has been trascribed as Treforest, Glamorgan

ricky

P.S

looking at GENUKI there is a place called Treforest, and that is 3.3 miles from Llantwit Fardre

Hi Ricky,
no problems,just glad it's sorted out.
