Thomas Ivor Lewis abercynon
« on: Monday 02 February 15 01:14 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for my great grandfather Thomas Ivor Lewis born Abercynon in 1869. He married a Jemima Harris. Thomas died in the Senghenydd pit disaster if 1913. I have him in the census of 1901 and 1911. However can't find his parents as there seems so many Lewis' does anyone have any knowledge of his parents.
Thanks
Gill

His marriage certificate should give his fathers name and occupation

Agree re marriage cert to confirm his fathers name and there is a possible birth for him on FreeBMD -  Thomas Ivor Lewis in Sept Qtr 1869 Pontypridd Vol 11a Page 273

In later census there is an L James Lewis listed as born in Abercynon and I do wonder whether this is Thomas in 1871 (on the image the second name looks like Ivor) with brother Lewis James living in Llanbanon near Abercynon https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/V51H-BR2   However this is just a thought :)
