Title: Frederick Morris born 1896 Machynlleth
Post by: janet bird on Thursday 30 October 14 10:35 GMT (UK)
I have Frederick Morris for June 1896 Machynlleth.  Can anyone provide any further information on who his family were and 1901 census perhaps.

Thanks for any help.

Unfortunately I can't see anyone with that birth place on the census  :-\

You might have to get the birth certificate to find his parents and move on from there  :)

Hi,
Towyn/Tywyn, Merionethshire now Gwynedd births are all registered under "Pennal" at Machynlleth, Montgomeryshire. It's odd as a lot of the marriages are registered at Dolgellau where you'd expect births to be registered.
I think it may depend on where in the (large) Parish of Towyn  where they were born. Towyn parish also includes Aberdyfi/Aberdovey which is much closer geographically to Machynlleth.
