help finding info on John Taylor born abt 1872 in merthyr tydfil, wales
« on: Friday 31 December 10 19:59 GMT (UK) »
Hello, I am trying to research my Great Grandfather John Taylor born about 1872 (according to the 1901 census) in Merthyr Tydfil. I cannot seem to find any more information about him before 1901. after 1901 i  know he married Florance Bisacre. Any help or tips would be very much appreciated please.  Thankyou Alison. ;D

Alison.
The 1901 census has John as a "Council Haulier"

1891 Census RG12 4420 101 45

Richard Taylor, Head, 64, Haulier, b. Cowbridge
Anne Taylor, Wife, 54, b. Merthyr
John Taylor, Son, 19, Haulier, b. Pontypridd
Richard Taylor, Son, 18, Haulier, b. Pontypridd
Diana Taylor, Dau, 14, b. Pontypridd

Address 33 Tramroad Side, Llantwit Fardre, Pontypridd

Possibly your John? 

regards
