I had a look for Rhys and Reece but couldn't see any likely candidates.

What was JH's dad's occupation in 1901? The OP says they were farmers for years - did they live on a farm or were they itenerant farm labourers?

We have Neath (don't know exactly where Bryncoch is, it's not listed as a separate district within Neath, was it just the house/farm name?); Llansamlet and Llangyfelach in Swansea; possibly Llanelli (see above) - just wondered if the family moved about S Wales according to the farming seasons.

These are common names but is this John (Jack) in 1901?

John Henry's sister Jennie is 1 year old on the 1901 census so unless she is nearly 2, this is probably not the right John Henry.  :-\

That birth reg would be worth investigating Jaywit ...  :)

Sorry everyone........... It seems s.r. is having problems posting, she's answered most of your questions, but can't get them on the board.   We're trying to fix the problem now.

Looking at the transcription of the 1911 census it's clear that the place of birth for JH and his sibs has been mistranscibed, but I can't work out what it should say and I can't get sight of the original image atm. Any ideas?

Edited to add - looking at 1901, I wonder if it's Blaenhonddan?

by the way Sarah was 29, the image was mistranscribed due to a check mark thru her age
