Hi,
I can only find 1 that may help you but I can not look into it now as I have no credits. This is 1881 Census.
Ref RG11 Folio 79 Page 28 Piece 5301
This Ann Davies is the right age Married living at Dumfries St which there are 2 about a mile or so apart at Treorchy and Treherbert both in Ystradyfodwg of Course. I hope this helps some.
Regards
Brian

A very long shot,particularly because the father is down as a "wood agent",but there is a scrap of a record sheet from Ystradyfodwg in 1881 where the Christian names of a Davies family are missing(as well as the address and references!),but the children look very similar to the family in question.
? Davies Daughter 17 Cwmaman
? " Son 13 Ferndale
? hn " Son 10 "
Blaenllechau is near Ferndale,I believe,for Daniel,and the second son could be William John.
The only reference I can find for the page is RG11/5303/90A
Dependent upon your database,it may be after RG11/9303/91/14!
