If you want to go further back you might need to find Thomas and Charlotte's marriage. There are a few Thomas Howells marrying a Charlotte, but with her middle name Ann and the location this might be worth looking at:

Marriages Jun 1893 (>99%)
Howells Thomas Bedwelty 11a 173
Jones Charlotte Ann Bedwelty 11a 173

This must be the marriage I think:

Marriages Mar 1917

Howells Daniel A Smith Yarmouth 4b 14
Smith Ida M Howells Yarmouth 4b 14

Lorraine, have you tried using freebmd? Fun as it is for us to look things up, you are missing out on the "eureka" moment of making these discoveries yourself.
Give it a go!

Me again!
Might be best to try and find family in 1911 - if there are any younger siblings, they should be there.
Possibility:
HOWELLS DANIEL 1897 14 Bedwellty Monmouthshire
HOWELLS THOMAS M 1872 39 Bedwellty Monmouthshire
HOWELLS CHARLOTTE ANN 1874 37 Bedwellty Monmouthshire

I'd be inclined to buy some credits and look at Charlotte.

Just checked re. Bedwelty and according to freebmd it did cover Ebbw Vale, so suggests we are on the right track.

Births Dec 1896
Howells Daniel Bedwelty 11a 100a

There are numerous Howell births - including those after 1911 whose mother's maiden name was Jones - so i do not see any other option but toaccess 1911 census to find siblings.
