That’s great, it is indeed a small world. Williams sister Isabella went to Ohio and from what I see conditions were as bad if not worse. Cheers!

Sorry for the misunderstanding. William Jones was born in 1856. The 1861 census says Aberdare but 1871 says Abercarne. Both as William. In 1881 census he was down as William Jones Daniels. Maybe at this time he started to use his stepfathers surname alongside his.He was down with his mother Ann Daniels. Thank you, Phil.

I can’t think of anything obvious with that. So going backwards 1871 census Ann is with her second husband John Daniels at Fry st in Darlington. 1861 Ann is with her first husband William at Lower East st Middlesbrough. So some time between 61&71 William died presumably in the North East.

Thank you, so if she died before the next census it makes it almost impossible to trace William. Although he was down as being born in Caerleon, he was actually born in Abercarne, Monmouthshire when his dad also  William Jones was alive. Going back to the 1881 census, do you know what the abbreviation is in the last column after his name ?. Just read the other posts regarding Ann. Thank you all, Phil

Durham / William Jones, Stockton

Hi all, a bit of a difficult one being a very common name. I have William Jones Daniels on the 1881 census for 22 Leonard st Stockton. He was with his mother Ann Daniels. She was down as being born in Colleen but it should read Caerleon and he as ditto. I dont know what happened to either of them. Williams sister Isabella married and emigrated to America. Thank you, Phil.

Just found some info online. Beacon hill house was first built as part of a crescent started in 1820. It is now a grade 2 listed building. I’m wondering if Ann Hepper born close by then worked there in 1841. Just need a birth or marriage of father William to ?

Her father William was a labourer and the witnesses look like Richard Hewish and Thomas Wotton?

Hi all, I’m looking for more info on Ann Hepper and looking at her marriage certificate in 1845 she was down as full age. Her father was William. As far as I can see from when I had ancestry.co.uk the only birth that fits is 1826 in Littleham. Has anyone got access to Devon records or/and her parents marriage etc. thanks in advance, Phil.
