1861 Census - Holyhead
« on: Friday 28 November 08 19:13 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

Could anyone make-out the address for me off the 1861 census?

Source Citation: Class RG9; Piece 4372; Folio 75; Page 44.

The address is in Holyhead but beyond that I'm really struggling.

The households I'm interested in are the KELLY and MOORE households.

Many thanks for reading. Best Wishes, Rowan  :)

Looks like Penrhynmarchos to me.  Recent maps show Brynmarchog near to Porth y Felin which is also on the 1861 census.

I happened to be looking at this page in the census also, looking at Ann Rowlands (maiden name Owen b.1832 Gaerwen) and her daughter Mary, also born in Gaerwen. I think she is the wife of William Rowlands. They had a son Hugh Rowlands (b. 13 July 1870 in Holyhead)

The census address looks to me Penrhynmarchog

See another discussion on this. http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,344765.0.html

If you look in Google Maps you can. I think Penrhyn Marchog refers to this area in general and not maybe the building that is only 'Soldier's Point' which was a nice hotel and is now a run down shell. Not sure even Soldier's Point was built ?
