Hello Alison......

I can't help you with birth/baptism, but have you seen the 1841 census..........

Bretton.......

William Davies / age 1
Samuel Davies / age 6 months

Living with.....

William Davies / age 40
Catherine Davies / age 20
Joseph Davies / age 15
Ed Davies / age 6
Elizabeth Davies / age 5

As you know, ages were rounded up/down by 5 years on the 1841. Could this be the boys, living with grandad and mum ?

Hope this helps

Regards

JeannieR

Thanks JeannieR,

Yes thats them on 1841 still having trouble finding out who his
parents are ! As there are a few family members elsewhere who are back in 1851.

Catherine is favorite so far to be his mother but it seems unlikely
that both John & Samuel are brothers and both born out of wedlock. Catherine married John Hughes and moved to Michigan,
John & Samuel stayed here.

Thanks again Alison
