Located marriage cert to Anne edmunds 1849 and discovered his father is James Morris.
He died in 1851 but before the census so struggling to locate his actual birth place. Any tips or help to find more info

Thanks for info. I have already found James and is on my list of possibles. I am concerned that he might not be the one as found a James Morris born 1819 Hay on the 1881 census. ( my James died 1851) Hay is a stones throw away as well and know birth places change all the time on the documents.

Regards

Also found James Morris 1819 on 1841 census living in the Hay district. It would appear it is not my man as I have him living in llangenny as a servant in 1841. The search goes on
