	It might be worth looking them up in the following 1891 census.
	Researching: For better results please give all the details ,name, date place as you can {pictures by me }

Member Since: January 2004 Posts: 92 Send Message	Hi Lindsey I Just tried doing that for Marlene - do you have any idea how many David Lewis's and William Wiliams's there were in Bridgend in 1891? Not to mention Elizabeth Lewis's and Elizabeth williams! I didn't - but I do now, hence the question!!! Just trying to narrow it down a bit for her. Lynne

Member Since: January 2004 Posts: 92 Send Message	Hmmmm If we go with the christening in Bristol - this one might be a match: 1881 census transcription details for: 21, Hill St, Llangeinor National Archive Reference: RG number: RG11 Piece: 5328 Folio: 86 Page: 45 Reg. District: Bridgend Sub District: Maesteg Enum.

The area was once the end of the tram line from the city of Bristol, the terminus being in Beaconsfield Road. St. George was once a mining area but now only pit names remain to remind everyone of this district's mining history ie Deep Pit road. Lynne
