Also I have just noticed on another of your posts that Alfred was illegitimate...is there any possibility that Alfred was registered under mothers surname Davis if he was illegitimate.

I found two Alfred William Davies one born in 1876 in Merthyr Tydfil and one in 1879 in Cardiff.

The name change may have come when he was older.

Regards,

Colleen

hi Colleen, thankyou for your interest. I have been away on holiday, and have just got your listing. it does make sense that maybe he did take his mothers maiden name. I know he was bought up by his aunts, which could explain why. I have no idea about his siblings births, I am going to try to get down to the records office, and see if I can find out anymore. Once again thankyou. think the Merthyur one would be more likely
