Benjamin Evans help please
« on: Saturday 27 September 25 14:03 BST (UK) »
Hello all!

I have a Benjamin Evans who married Jane Evans at Llanfair Nant-Gwyn in 1832. Found them on the 1841 census at Llanfihangel Penbedw with 4 children. 1851, they're at Manordeifi.

Can anyone help me find anything for a birth or baptism for Benjamin? According to census hes born in county in 1841, born Manordeifi parish in 1851 and Clyde, Pembrokeshire in 1861 (Clydey?).

Any help greatly appreciated.

You haven't included any birthyear for him

1851 shows 1806 but 1861 is 1811 & in 1871 it's 1801

10yr variation in birthyear - when did he die?

His year of birth is all over the place, so Im sure he didnt have a clue. Again im sure he died between the 1871 and 1881 censuses. But theres a few options on the death index.

There are only 2 possible deaths in the Merthyr Tydfil RD between 1871-1881.  1877 may be more likely than the 1878 one given he married in 1832

As he had not lived in Pembroke since at least 1851 why do you think he may have returned there before he died?

Which of his children are you descended from?  Did any of the children return to Pembroke or did they all remain in Glamorgan?
