Hello Loo,

I'm probably getting my Benjamins mixed up - not sure if a blacksmith would become a ships carpenter, completely different trades, however interesting to see Swansea- it keeps popping up.  I think I have picked up the wrong age from a web site - I better have that entry checked.

I have the 1851 entry for the second Ben.  This matches the 1841 entry you gave me - except birthplace.  Does this 1841 give birthplaces?  I have seen it on some of mine when they were born out of the county, but not street address! I love thorough enumerators.

1851
HOWELL Benjamin 49 Shipwright Pembrokeshire
Harriet 48 Shoe Binder Backwell
Alfred 15 Apprentice Shipwright Bedminster
Emily Sophia 12 Scholar Bedminster
Julie Ann 9 Scholar Bedminster
Edwin 6 Scholar Bedminster

Your post has also given me the info I need to tie in another Benjamin and a Joseph to this family unit - more shipwrights that I am tracking.

Many thanks

No, it doesn't specify where born, except whether it's in the same county as whether they are living, or not.
I have adjusted what I wrote above to reflect this better.  Please read it again.

Many thanks Loo for making it right,
much appreciated,

Is anyone tracing this Howell line?  I am interested in finding info on my mothers cousins who are related down one of Edwins Howell(1846) line?  Thank you.
