Hi

Can you include his birthyear please and also when he married Martha/Hannah?

If he was born/married before 1881 - have you checked the 1881 census for him which is free at

If you are descended from one of his children - please give full details of that child so we can trace census entries

If that is the right 1901 entry - he was living in the  Llandilofawr RD at that time

There is no death in that RD in 1908 for somebody b 1877

[despair]

FreeBMD has a David Robert Jones death in 1908 that looks appropriate at age 31.
If so, he is probably on 1881 census with parents William and Rachel(possibly nee Davies- married 1876?)and sister Margaret Ann(born 1881) at 4 Abertonlyd,Ystradyfodwg

1881  RG11  5300 91 11

It's written better as Abertonllwyd Road in 1891 - which is in Treherbert
