Gillian,
Thank you, I have all the census info back to 1851, the family originated I think in the Llangadog/Llandeilo area, but here I have hit a wall. The 1871 info is a different David, mine was at home with parents William & Ann (real mother Elinor deceased) at Gough road,Alltygrug,Ystalyfera.
Any info on the family post 1901 is my goal at the moment.
