Hi Elwyne,

In future, it really helps if you provide more information, as it is difficult to help you with so few details. However, I see you posted this on another thread:

Re my Arthur family of Tredegar.

My grandfather Thomas Henry Arthur b. 1880 Tredegar died 1955 Swans?EA Glamorgan

GT Granfather Thomas
Arthur B 1849 Coal Haulier 
GT GT John. Arthur ?? _also another William Arthur??  I would be grateful for ay he?p

So I have followed Thomas Henry's line back and found the John Arthur to whom you refer.

I see that Thomas Arthur (born c.1849) married Elizabeth Pugh in 1871 and his father is down as 'John Arthur, collier.'

This 1871 census entry matches all the information above:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:V55D-H8T

It is just before Thomas married Elizabeth.

John Arthur, the father, is down as being born c.1820 in Tredegar.

Here is the birth registration of John's youngest daughter, whom he had by his second wife, Mary:

ARTHUR, JANE       BEYNON 
GRO Reference: 1865  J Quarter in BEDWELLTY  Volume 11A  Page 111

Matching marriage on 9th May 1864 between a John Arthur, widower, collier, and Mary Evans (née Beynon). However, this gives his father as David Arthur, collier, not William.

Possible first marriage on 4th August 1845 to a Mary Thomas in Tredegar.
