Prestidge in Llanelli
« on: Monday 23 January 06 23:23 GMT (UK) »
I have Thomas Prestidge born 1887 in Northamptonshire married Agnes Phillips born 1891 in Llanelli,

They married in Felinfoel in 1915.

I cannot find Thomas or his family on the 1891 or 1901 census and have reason a believe they were in Wales.I hoped someone might have a look for him for me.


Thanks

Linda

Hi Linda

Is it Thomas & family you are trying to find? You have only given Agnes's father's info and not Thomas's.

kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

Hi Sorry, This lot are wearing me down !!

It's Thomas's family I am looking for. Father Thomas a surveyor born 1862 in Moreton Pinkney, Northamptonshire, Mother Mary Charlotte Abbott born 1865 Sapcote, Leicestershire. Brother Walter Harold born 1889 and sister Lottie Sophia born 1891. Thomas was born in 1887. All children were registered in Sapcote, Leics and baptised in Moreton Pinkney. All within 8 weeks of their respective births.

I read in a book that Thomas (elder) and his family had been in Wales at some time and this seems to be born out by the fact that Thomas (younger) married in Wales.

Wondered if this was where they could have been on 1891 0r 1901 census.

Thanks

Linda
