John Rees-Station Master [completed]
« on: Friday 05 September 08 16:42 BST (UK) »
On the 1881 census of Gelligaer parish [RG11/5307/135/7 residing at 15 George Inn Row was John Rees, age 29, b. Mynyddislwyn, Station Master.
Also at home were Anne, WI, 30, b. Bedwellty;  Lydia Anne, DA, 8, b. Llanelly, Carmarthenshire; Mary Ellen, DA, 5, b. Bedwellty; Margaret Emma, DA, 2, b. Gelligaer [possibly Brithdir]; Olivia Isabella, DA, 11 mths.

Can someone please help locate John Rees on the 1871 census and the 1891 census.

Thanks in advance
Roy
anything and everything to do with the village of Brithdir, near New Tredegar in Gwent.
