Harriet Davies-Caerphilly
« on: Saturday 10 December 11 21:13 GMT (UK) »
Can someone please do a look-up on the 1851 census for Harriet Davies of Caerphilly?  Harriet’s sibling Mary Ann is my wife’s great grandmother.  Harriet is listed at home on the 1861 but for some reason she is missing on the 1851? 

1861 census: Glamorgan-Energlyn East
Eliaser Davies, HD, 47, Sculptor, Eglwysilan, Glam
Mary Ann, wife, 45, Llantrisant, Glam
Harriet (18); William (15); Margaret (13); John (10); Mary Ann (7); Elizabeth (5)

Thanks in advance, Roy

Hi Keyboard
Thanks for the details, much appreciated.  I think you've found her; On the 1841 there is a Margaret Davies, 57, Ind, with Eleazer Davies, 27, sculptor. 

I wonder if you could try locate the family on the 1871.

Thanks, Roy

Hi Keyboard
I located a possible marriage for Harriet on FreeBMD followed by a look-up on the 1881 which looked very probable until I began transcribing; the ages for Elizabeth (9) and Edgar (6) are somewhat older than they should have been.  I wonder if you could check the 1891.
