Thank you very much.

a newspaper article on his return to Wales from South Africa.
He had been absent for 7 years Had travelled a lot in America and Australia but he came home from South Africa.
John Humphreys also came home from the same place.
Fits in nicely with the 1903 passenger list.

hat is him. 0n 1911 census his sister was a dairy farmer at Llwyndu bach.
Neale1961 on the other thread has him travelling to Australia with a John
Humphreys in 1903 so it looks as if he went to Australia, came home and went to South Africa, Did he travel to Australia from the Transval or did he come to Wales between his travels is the question I need to answer.
many thanks for all your help
