1891 Census look up please

[grubheam]

I am doing this for my friend Val - she is looking for her ancestors the Harries of Glamorgan. I am not familiar with Wales very well - but can you help her please? We need the confirmation of 1891 census of her grandmother, I think! Margaret Jane Harries, daughter of William Harries and Jane Hopkins. Margaret was born 1882 in Cwmclydach, Ystradyfodwg, Glamorgan(!) Hope it is right spelling....William's occupation was ostler. Thank you for your timing....

Hi,

Unable to locate any of your details.  Do you have anything else to go on? 

The spelling is right for the area of Clydach Vale, Rhondda.

The upper part is called Cwmclydach and the lower is Blaenclydach.  Ystradfodwg is an old name for the Rhondda Valley.

Margaret got siblings - Julia Ann b. 1873 at Giants Grave, Britonferry, Mary Jane b. 1876 in Britonferry, James b. 1879 in Britonferry and William b. 1880 in Britonferry - I have 1881 census on the family - they lived at 4 Middleton St, Britonferry, Glamorgan. Their father William was born 1849 in Whitchurch, Nr Pembroke and mother Jane b. 1853 in Cardigan. I hope this helps.
