Hi,
Would any one be able to look up 1841 census for a David William from Letterston a farmer? Not sure of birth date. Is he living with a wife or any children? Any information would be gratefully accepted.
Thanks

Hello Dave,

Glad I could help just to finish the censuses for David & Mary WILLIAMS

1881c Letterston Villiage
Mary WILLIAMS widow 70 Little Newcastle, Pembroke Annuitant
Thomas Williams son 47 (last column on census says imbecile since birth)
Anne ROWLANDs dau Wid. Formely farmers wife
Thomas   “ grandson 10

1891c
Church Street, Letterston
Mary WILLIAMS Head Widow F 78 1813 Living On Her Own Means
Little Newcastle
ROWLANDS, Ann Daughter Widow F 63 1828 Letterston Pembrokeshire

Looks as if Mary has died before the 1901 census as it's just her
dau. Ann ROWLANDS 69 living at Rock Cottage Letterston on own means

Bit more info. from census re: Thomas

1841 & 1851 census have nothing written  in last column 
1861 census says deaf
1871 says inflicted after fever

Dear Ladyhawk,
Thank you so much for all your detailed information. Really thrilled to know all those facts. Never thought I would be able to trace the family back as far as that. It realy helps to form a picture of the way in which one generation built on the foundation of the previous one.
You are very kind and it is much appreciated.
Kind regards,
dave56
