Title: Llanllawddog - Is there such a place.
Post by: syljun on Friday 02 April 10 14:47 BST (UK)

Hi,  1881 Census has a David Rees born 1806 and Elinor Rees b. 1810 living at Llanllawddog, Carms.
Could someone please tell me where this is as I cannot find it on map. Thanks, Syljun

Hi

Llanllawddog http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/wal/CMN/Llanllawddog/index.html

On the census Elinor is spelt Eleanor does that help?

Thanks Osprey and Cal, Yes I did find it on Genuki. Still searching for my David/Davies family. Trying to find siblings of William David bap. 1/2/1801. Llandarrog. Cannot believe he was only child. Will keep trying. Many thanks, Syljun

Yes all my husband's Davies relations lived there for years. It is just outside Carmarthen in South Wales.
