hi nestagj,yes i looked at that,so would it mean that elizabeth was born at the station?.Also who filled the census forms in,was it the head of house or
did the enumerator do you know.

[despair]

If Elizabeth was born 1885 at the station,the relevant census looks to be the 1891:

4642  64  2

The occupants are Thomas and Jane Rogers,and she is given as born Talybont,Cardiganshire 1857 with the most likely wedding:

Thomas Rogers and Jane Richards 1876 Aberystwyth registration district

The 1881 census has a family called Clapperton(5546 74  11)

I identified the station by the proximity to The George Hotel

Roger

Oh dear - yet another Richards born Talybont ! I think the wiki article states that there is a station keepers house.

And the following is an even more speculative link:-
Thomas Rogers dies1894 ,aged 38,Dolgelly(never know which variant spelling to use.
Jane Rogers marries William Jones 1895 Dolgelly

A Jane Jones(born 1857 Aberystwyth)is with a Sophia Richards in Radnorshire(county where Thomas Rogers was born),1901 census.

the 1911 census is the only one, for now, that shows the form filled out by the householder which is why it is one form per house. The census for other years shows the enumerators' returns. So, on the 1911, look for the signature at the bottom right hand corner of the form and there should be the signature of the person who filled out the form.

This thread seems to be getting a bit circular going over the same info. Tac, it would be a good idea if you made notes from this thread and then post a new query, with a link to this one, looking specifically for what info you need.

hi all,havent been on as was waiting for a reply to another email i sent but with no luck .
hi osprey i cant do links  but i really need if to find the birth of elizabeth jane williams and if im lucky enough to find it the i will be able to go back further.yes i have made some notes from here and i am in the opinion that elizabeth and thomas jones are the grandparents who elizabeth jane williams is with in the 1891 census,the only other option is that elizabeth jane has the wrong date of birth on her gravestone,

if you know her date of birth, ask the local registrars to look for the cert.

There's probably more than one way of doing links, but I open up another tab and have the thread I'm refering to on that one, control + c on the url and then control + v on the post I'm typing.
