David and Baden Powell - 1901 Census Merthyr Tydfil COMPLETED WITH THANKS

[MarMnkly]

Please can you help 
I am looking for the family of David Powell, born in 1896 in Merthyr. I have no other information to help with such a common name, except that he had a brother named Baden Powell that is a bit more unusual. I am hoping that Baden has been born before the 1901 census and that they are listed together in the census with other unknown family members. The only other information I have is that they lived as children in the Clwyd y Fagwr/Swansea Road area and that they were known as the 'Brecon' side of the family which may give a clue to their parents birth place?

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated

It was worth a try, Margaret but Baden Powell was born 1901

Possible family for David Powell, there were several but this seemed the
most likely.

Hi Meliora 
thankyou very much - this may be them as there were lots of other brothers and sisters whose names I need to check out to see if there are any ones that fit.  There doesn't seem to be a Brecon connection here, but that could be another generation back?

You are very kind to help
