Hello, Please could someone give me any information on Lewis Evans and Eleanor Sarah Evans nee Lewis? she was born 1890 (don't know about him ) and they married in 1910. They lived at 2 Woodlands Terrace Cross Hands in 1912

Any further information would be great treat.

err, if she was born in 1911, she won't be on the 1901. What is her date of birth?

do you have their marriage cert for info on their fathers?

Morgan Lewis sept qtr 1910 Carmarthen vol 11a pg 2117 with Eleanor S Lewis the only other on the page

Have you found them on the 1911 census for info on places of birth, ages, occupation? 1911 index is free to search & pay to view for results.

many thanks to osprey and morganllan - wow! the first marriage too!!!

have only just got the parnent's names from a birth certificate so no chance of having the marriage cert yet. so no info on Morgan's parents but I did the 1911 thing and found he was born in Llanon Carms.

what about his age and occupation? The only Morgan Evans who has Llannon as his place of birth in 1901 is a Morgan Morris Evans, but I think he doesn't marry until 1915. There is another Morgan, living in Llannon but born Llanarthney. It could be he moved there when very young so didn't know he was born elsewhere.

1901 Maesyglynen, Llannon RG13/5093 folio 70 pg 25
Mary Evans head widow 54 housekeeper b. Llanarthney
Wiiliam son 32 lampman @ colliery b. Bettws 
Margaret dau 26 dressmaker b. Bettws
Samuel son 22 collier hewer below ground b. Llanarthney
Griffith son 20 apprentice carpenter b. Llanarthney
Rees son 18 labourer at colliery b. Llanarthney
Arthur son 15 b. Llanarthney
Morgan son 12 b. Llanarthney

1891 Wainwen, Llannon RG12/4499 folio 79 pg 2
John Evans head mar 49 coal miner
Mary wife 44
William son 22 coal miner
David son 18 coal miner
Margaret dau 16 general servant
Griffith son 10
Rees son 8
Arthur son 5
Morgan son 1
all born Llanarthney
