Hunsteed St David's

Eighteenth October is clear but what or where is Hunteed?

Can any one read it?

Nun Street, St Davids

possibly this census entry from 1901

Nun St, St David's RG13/5131 folio 146 pg 10
Elizabeth Richards head widow 75 no occupation b. Mathry

The address for Elizabeth Richards buried 20 Oct 1906 is noted as Oakley Street in the burial register.

Thanks. I can see Nun Street now.   The age on the death certificate is 41 so it is not her.  The woman in question was on Ramsay island in 1901.

oops, just noticed her age on the cert

41 as shown above is not her age. It's the entry number in the register.

I know that is the serial of the record.  It's a coincidence and the age is given in Col 4 which gives a 1865/6 birth date.

The reporting person is John Richards, brother, of Cross Square.  John was 31 in 1906 and is on the 1901 Census living in Cross Square.  At that age he is not the brother of any 77 year old.

Try as I might I cannot find where Oakley St was as its either been renamed or flattened.

Oakley St, St Davids.
