HELP. Iam tring to trace my maternal side but am stuck at the first hurdle. My Gmother Annie Williams was born in wales. I have found her marriage Cert that states she was living on Hopkin Street Treherbert, I have been on the 1901 census and found a Annie Williams who was a vistor in the house of Hannah and Daniel Cole who were mentioned as witnesses on her marriage cert but am now stuck. Her fathers name was David Williams and was a weaver at the time of her marriage in 1902. I am presuming that Hannah was her sister and also another vistor in the house at the time of the census David Williams aged 13 is her brother but am not sure. Can anyone please help me go one step further back.

Thanks in advance for your help

Treherbert is nowhere near Carmarthenshire - sorry about that!!! Merthyr would be the nearest, nearer than Bridgend as well
