What kind of info are you looking for?

Whereabouts in Wales was he born?

Who did he marry?

Do you have him on any census so we don't duplicate info? 

[de windt]

  in the 1891 census he was a wool weaver age 70years living at Carerbout i think he was born carmerthenshire he may have been married twice, hr had a son david. henry death 1898 swansea.

Have you looked for him in the 1881 census

[CaroleW]

in the 1891 census he was a wool weaver age 70years living at Carerbout

Sorry - I can't find an 1891 entry with that birthyear - 1821

Can you post full 1891 details please

The death in 1898 shows birthyear 1816

[CaroleW]

Are you sure the 1898 death is his?  There is an 1891 entry for a Henry Simons aged 74 b Llandillo Carmarthen but his occ is not wool weaver - it's shown as living on his own means

That Henry fits the profile for the 1898 death

[despair]

This looks like a reasonable possibility for census data:-

1891  4470  106  15

1881  5351  8  13

1871  5444  2  1

1861  4096  12  4

and possibly,

1851  2465   107  13
(this entry is for Symons,a labourer,but the last person listed is given as a labourers weaver)

Haven't found a reasonable 1841 candidate.

Regards

1891  4470  106  15

That is the entry I am referring to above - neither his birthyear nor his occ match the profile given by Enid for the 1891 entry.  He was not living in Carebout?? - he was living in Tyr Bont Cadley - Penderry Glamorgan

 

[despair]

In 1891 his age is a little out,but he doesn't strictly  have an occupation,he is now "living on his own means".
His address throughout in this set just looks like transcription variants on the same address,and obviously very similar to "Carebout"

1891 Tyrbont Cadley,Penderry
(He is with  his son from the 1851 census)

1881  Carbont LLangyfelach,Penderry Lower

1871  Carbont,Teer Pont Calley,Llangyfelach

1861  Caerbont,Llangyfelach

1851  Caerbont,Penderry
