Title: George Owens Argoed 1841 Census look up
Post by: snub nose on Saturday 30 December 06 23:02 GMT (UK)
Please can anyone help with a look up for George Owens, b 1806 on the 1841 Census for Argoed please.  He would have been married to Sarah possibly with 4 children: John, Eliza, Mary and Sarah.

I am also looking for Griffith Hughes b circa 1797 and married to Margaret, probably in Bistree.  The only child I have is Ellis Hughes, b 1817 in Bistree.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Gwyneth

Hello and thank you.  This has confirmed my earlier research, like a silly so and so, I hadn't recorded the source of some of the info I have. 

Best wishes for the New Year.

Hello Paul

Great stuff, thanks.  I am not sure about the baptisms of George Owens - the first one looks more like it.  Where is Saughton? 

The marriage is definitely mine as are the Hughes' baptisms.  Now I have got them living in Bistre it ties in with the rest of my research and a few more leads to follow up.

Once again, thank you.
