Thanks Heywood for the details  :)

Yes, I do have access to search (which takes ages obviously with Jones), but for some reason I cannot access the information using the direct reference info (via piece/folio/page numbers)  ???

I've come across plenty of other ancestors who were apparently born "in county" on the 1841 census when all other confirmed evidence (eg birth certificates) states that they clearly were not!

I wonder where on earth "Spalty" can be in Cardiganshire?  I guess Llanshen could be Llanidloes, though...plenty more to search on, I think.
Thanks again
Helen

Hi,
I have just found another possible Thomas Jones on 1851 census:

(HO107, Piece 2448 Folio 542 page 46 Bedwellty)

Elizabeth Jones Head widow 26 born Le Mason, Somerset
John Jones Son 8 born Bedwellty
David Jones son 3 born "
Thomas Jones son 1 born "
Eleanor Michael lodger 27 lodger born Cilgerran Pembs

What is interesting about this one is that Eleanor Michael is the future mother-in-law of the Thomas Jones that I'm searching for!!!

I cannot find this family on any other census - can anyone help?

Thanks
Helen
