Trying to find George Davies born in Abergwilly Wales in 1833.
Father David Davies was a watchmaker on George's marriage cert.
In the 1851 census George was working at Gellygwellt Isaf.
Any help in locating the family in the 1841 census would be appreciated. Thanks.

These all have parents David and Sarah:
GEORGE DAVIES Christening: 15 FEB 1833 Pantteg And Peniel Meeting Houses-Independent, Abergwili, Carmarthen, Wales
DANIEL DAVIES Christening: 27 JUL 1837 Pantteg And Peniel Meeting Houses-Independent, Abergwili, Carmarthen, Wales
HARRY DAVIES Christening: 09 FEB 1830 Pantteg And Peniel Meeting Houses-Independent, Abergwili, Carmarthen, Wales
MARGARETTA DAVIES Christening: 31 MAY 1822 Pantteg And Peniel Meeting Houses-Independent, Abergwili, Carmarthen, Wales
ESTHER DAVIES Christening: 15 JAN 1836 Pantteg And Peniel Meeting Houses-Independent, Abergwili, Carmarthen, Wales
so I have been trying to find some of them together in 1841, but nothing yet showing.
