Oh No!!

My william was living at 100 twynrodyn, merthyr in 1861.  I may have to go back to the start for this one.  am i mixing up the 2 families???

What's the 1861 census reference for your William 

Ah OK I see - age 25!

Given their oldest daughter is a new born, I'm wondering if the more likely marriage for those 2 isnt:
William Mainwaring - Margaret Davis Jun 1856 Merthyr

I was thinking the same about the marriage Tati....

I have Glam Bapt. & marriages pre 1837 (some non conformists are not listed so not complete) not having much luck finding a match for the names/place involved.

Welshwoman, is the 1861 a defo match to your family?

Hi Cas 

The one aged 26 on the 1851 census seems to have a mother Mary (1851: HO107/2458 329 73)

Who's your starting point, Welshwoman? 

[Cas (stallc)]

This looks a good poss., not on glam index, but is IGI extracted....

WM. MANWARING
Birth:  07 NOV 1834   bapt:  18 FEB 1835   Ynysgon Presbyterian, Merthyr Tydfil, Glam
Father:  RICHARD MANWARING  Mother:  MARY 

Other bapts on IGI to match children in 1851: HO107/2458 329 73

Yep, shown as Manware / Mainwaring in 1841 

Not an easy name after all, is it! 

[welshwoman59]

my grandmother was mary ann mainwaring born 1884 in aberdare.  her father was morgan mainwaring 1862 aberdare and her mother gwenllian rees 1865 aberdare.

morgans father was william mainwaring 1831 merthyr tydfil and mother was margaret morris 1832 from blackwood.

OK so your 1861 find was incorrect, what do you think?     

Your family:
1881
http://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=uki1881wales&indiv=try&h=5650795
RG11/5324 92 16

and 1871:  RG10/5409 144 31 (shout if you need a transcription of the details)

[welshwoman59]

it looks very likely doesn,t it?

so where are they hiding?  I have them in 1901 - morgan and gwen - but not 1891.  it's madness.

i'd like to thank everyone for the trouble they're taking on my behalf
