I seem to have a knack at losing my ggrandfathers. I was wondering if a kind soul would do a look up for me. This is my ggrandfather William Lloyd (46?) married to Sarah Ann LLoyd (46?)and possibly have their daughter Ann Maria born 1866 so aged about 25. My grandfather won't be there but I am wondering which part of the country they were living in and whether ggfather had changed occupation form miner. Any help appreciated.

Thanks for the responses. I am not sure about these 2 Williams. THe age of 46 was approx. It's a big step up from coal miner to train driver? But you never know. Any more takers lol. Thanks again John
