1861 Census Bedwellty
« on: Monday 16 May 05 13:52 BST (UK) »
Needle in haystack stuff. I am looking for Benjamin Thomas a carpenter born Trelech 1822ish, his wife Hannah, son Samuel b. 1854 and daughter Mary b. circa 1856 in Bedwellty. I am hoping to find them in Bedwellty in 1861. By 1881 they are living in Deri.

Could someone please see if they are in Bedwellty or Deri in 1861?

It looks as if we have them, thanks. Someone has posted details of a family in Bedwellty that looks promising.
