Hi Tiff
Detail of the inhabitants of Bwlch Sych, Hirnant in 1861 census:
Humphrey Humphreys (47) farmer, 160 acres, b.Hirnant
Ann Humphreys (45), wife, b.Hirnant
Children; Jane (10), Margaret (8), Mary (6), Catherine (3), Hannah (14m) all born Hirnant
Also Robert Thomas (3), grandson to wife (suggests Ann was married before)
Looking at the 1851 census, this shows additional children:
Humphrey Humphreys (36)
Ann Humphreys (34) - shown as b.Llangynog
Elinor (5), Elizabeth (3) and Jane (8m)
There are 2 servants, one of which is Anne Thomas (12) b.Llangynog (could be Ann's daughter from first marriage ?)
Hope this helps you along
