Title: William Llewellyn from Llangan
Post by: flossy393 on Thursday 30 May 13 11:49 BST (UK)

Hi

I'm struggling to find information about William Llewellyn (born circa 1867) in Llangan.
I don't seem to be able to find a birth record for him (I need this as am struggling to find his father). I have ordered his marriage certificate but no father is mentioned and they are married in a registry office with only witnesses from his wife's side - is this unusual?
One possibility lies with Martha Llewllyn (sometimes spelt Lewellin) who is his grandmother and who he lives with from the age of 3. One of her children is Hannah and she dies age 19 in the same year as William is born. Could it be possible that she was in fact the mother?
Any help with this would be great!

Thanks

Flora

If he was born in Llangan, it's probable ( perhaps!) that his birth was registered in Bridgend.

There are three registered for a William Llewellyn between 1865 and 1868.

Good Luck!

Hi Flora
I
Think that the man you are looking for is,
David Llewellyn
Born 23 June 1857 in Llangan
Died 14 Dec 1932 in Treoes.

And was married to
Susanna ?
Born 1865 in Newton, Nottage
Died 28 Nov in Treoes

They had 6 children that I have found, all boys
Evan, David, William, Hopkin, Thomas and Benjemin
 
I hope that this is the family that you are looking for, if so can you let me know

All the best
Gareth
