Trying to find information on the parents of John Williams born 1799 in Lanblethian Glamorgan. Father's name was Thomas Williams and mother Eleanor, I can't find any other information on them, if anyone can help me I will be very grateful as I would love to trace my family back further.

Llanblethian
"LLAN BLEIDDIAN, in the Cwmwd of Maenor Glynn Ogwr, Cantref of Cron Nedd (now called the Hundred of Ogmore), Co. of GLAMORGAN, South Wales: a discharged Vicarage, with the Chapel of Cowbridge, valued in the King's Books at £10..3..4: Patrons, The Dean and Chapter of Gloucester: Church dedicated to St. John the Baptist. The Resident Population of this Parish, in 1801, was 475. The Money raised by the Parish Rates, in 1803, was £166..18..6 1/2, at 1s. 9d. per acre to the Poor, and at 4 1/2d. per pound to the Highways. It is 1 m. S. W. from Cowbridge. This Parish contains about 3000 acres of Land; of which, five or six Hundred are uniclosed and uncultivated. It is a remarkably pleasant Village, situate upon Lime-stone. In the division of Glamorgan by the Norman Adventurers, the Lordship of Llan Bleiddian the Great, and the privileged Town of Pont Faen, were given to Robert de St. Quintin, whose Castle is now in ruins.

that's the only record coming up and that is not from a authorized transcription of the parish registers

IGI ref C025182 is for Llanblethian and there are no John Williams with father Thomas and mother Eleanor

Thanks, I have this info. on John but I am trying to trace back further. The info. on Llanblethian is interesting as there is a possible link with Thomas father may have been in the ministery. Do you know where I would find John's birth registered ?

Births were not registered until 1837 and even then it was not compulsory. You have to go to parish records and hope that they were baptised. We will only find them online if they have been transcribed.

I know you are trying to go back further but nothing is coming up, the best
one I can find is this one but not in Glamorgan.

Thanks Victoria. I will check that one out as the dates seem right and I don't know where Thomas and E leanor came from they could have moved to Llanblethian after marriage.
Thanks again for all your help.

Remembered that I have a cd of Glamorgan marriages , so this is what I found

JONES ELINOR LLANGYFELACH
24OCT 1786 LANGFELCH(PLW)

WILLIAMS THOS BONVILSTONE
THOMAS ELINOR CARDIFF

In the column showing where the marriage took place , there are
sometimes codes which indicate the following additional information
may be available in the actual registers
B - Married by Banns
C= married by consent
L= Married by Licence
P= personal details etc
T= Taken from Bishops transcripts
W= Name of witness

Thanks Victoria. I will be in South Wales in April and plan on checking these marriages out lets hope I hit lucky, so I can trace back further.
