Hi Tim,
           Nothing to add to what you know, I'm afraid: I managed to confirm the details you provided, but only by searching the individual returns for Llandebie 1851. One difference is that the whole family is surnamed MorganS in the written record, although this doesn't seem to make them easier to find in 1861 and 1871.
                  There is a good chance, of course, that the daughters might have married or moved, but even David provides no trace. I notice that by 1861 Cilrhedyn seems to comprise several dwellings; might the original farmland have been used for building houses in the meantime? Perhaps also Mary senior remarried.
              Best of luck searching; someone else may do better,
                                  Pinot  :)
