1841census for aberavon Glamorgan please

[Romilly]

Hi Vicky,

Many thanks for the 1851 Rees Census details. Yes, I had found that one.

Here is the 1871 one for them:


Evan Rees abt 1837  Morriston, Glamorgan, Wales Head  Llangyfelach  Glamorgan   
George Rees abt 1869  Morriston, Glamorgan, Wales Son  Llangyfelach  Glamorgan   
John Rees abt 1859  Morriston, Glamorgan, Wales Son  Llangyfelach  Glamorgan   
Margaret Rees abt 1839  Aberavon, Glamorgan, Wales Wife  Llangyfelach  Glamorgan   
Margaret Rees abt 1867  Morriston, Glamorgan, Wales Daughter  Llangyfelach  Glamorgan   
Sarah A Rees abt 1862  Morriston, Glamorgan, Wales Daughter  Llangyfelach  Glamorgan   

I was particularly interested in trying to trace the Aberavon family of Margaret Rees, (Senior).

Thanks for your help.

Cheers, Romilly.

Hi,
I've had no luck either i'm sorry on 1841 census.
I've had a look for birth registrations and have come up with following:
Margaret Rees, Sep 1837,vol 26 page 262 Neath
                         Mar 1840,vol 26 page 405 Neath
                                         vol 26 page 437 Neath
I know the last 2 entries are a bit later than the year range you have, but if she was born as late as Dec 1839, then she may not have been registered until the beginning of 1840 which would be that March quarter. 
Hope this helps in some way.
Laura

Hi Vicky,

Yes, thats definately my Great Grandparents Evan and Margaret Rees.

I've been able to find his parents on the 1841 Census, but nothing for her's. I'm beginning to wonder if her birth was ever registered, because I've been unable to find anything so far

Thanks for the help, Romilly.

Hi Again,

After much searching, I think that I have found my Margaret Rees on the 1851 Census for Wales!!

The Margaret Rees that I have found is born 1842 in Aberavon, but is living in Llangyfelach at the time of the 1851 Census. Her parents are Isaiah and Margaret(!) Rees. I think that this must be my Margaret Rees, & that Isaiah and Margaret Rees must be my Great great grandparents?

Could anyone possibly do a Look-up on the 1841 Census for Wales for them please? (Isaiah was born in Merthyr, but Margaret in Aberavon).

Many thanks, Romilly.
