John Williams completed
« on: Monday 06 February 12 12:16 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
I'm trying to fing birth cert for John Williams (I know; needles, haystack etc).
1851 census says age 9, born Talgarth, Brecs.
Father William Williams, farm lab. Mother Esther.
Census also shows Margaret same age as John.
Problem is Talgarth doesn't show as a district on Fbmd etc.
Can anyone help to narrow my search please?

Rob
