Hi Clare I`ve just seen this family on the 1891 census and Sarah is a widow now, so I`m sorry but this can`t be your family after all. Eileen

Hi Clare. As a ' newbie ' I`m not really sure,but I know some people who might, OK everyone where are you ! ! ! ! ? Eileen

hi Eileen how would i go about determining if this family is the right one

Hello Again I would have thought that the fact that Mountain Ash and Woodland St are both mentioned would be to much of a coincidence. I`m sure others will agree that birth dates can often be wrong,so I wouldn`t ignore this particular family altogether. Eileen

hi Eileen ive seen that one but the fathers birth year is out by 9 years so im not sure

merry but when the son william dies the informent was a F.Chamberlain who was a brother in law but i dont know who he is lol this is so confusing

merry monty yes their occupations are william born 1877 collier william born 1847 collier lol this doesn' t help much

sorry helen little just read your reply i got his marrage n stuff but cant find them on the 1901 cencus tryed and tryed but nothing

So, are we looking for a William Morgan born about 1877 with a father named the same born about 1847, probably somewhere in Wales! Have you got any occupations for these man? Merry

hi helen little the thing is i dont know where wm junior was born so i cant get his BC ive got his marriage cert and his death cert and ive also got wm seniors death cert cause i dont know where he was born either ive been trying to find this out for a long time and its doing my head in :)

Sorry, just read your last message about him marrying later - get the marriage cert, it will give a) his age, so you will have a good idea WHEN he was born b) his occupation c) his father's name and occupation, so you can find him on 1901 census. nell

hi merry monty again yes my great grand mother and great grandfather married a few years after the kids were born i was very supprised as i thought in them days people got married b4 having kids

Clare Let me see if I have this straight. You want William Morgan, your gt gt grandfather. You know he had a child, your gt grandfather, also called William Morgan. For simplicity, I'll call the younger one junior. You say you don't know if Wm Morgan senior ever married. If you have Wm junior's birth cert it should state his mother's name. If you don't have Wm junior's birth cert I strongly advise getting it. It will give you his mother's maiden name if she wasn't married, so you can find a marriage. It will also give Wm Morgan senior's occupation, which will help. nell

hi merry monty yes elizabeth was the mother of the two children and no my great grandfather was not married before he married her

So, are you saying William Morgan married E J Phillips some years after they had their children? Merry
