Find Ancestors

Trying to find Magaret Davies , Born around 1855 at Llanwddyn, Montgomeryshire.
Can not find her on GR but a quick look at Ancestry shows a possible on the 1861 and 1871 census. I do not subscribe to Ancestry so if anyone who does and has the time and is willing to look it up for me I would be very thankful.

The original image says she is a servant not a daughter......

Many thanks Cathy
This looks promising as the family history has her from Mallwyd. but I do not understand why there are two versions of her name
Margaret Davies
Margaret Jones.
Is there a posssible reason for this?
I am new to this and am on a steep learning curve
Thanks

Someone will have submitted that info salimali but I wouldn't think it's very reliable as she is definately a servant not a daughter and has a different surname to the rest of the family... and none of them are from Llanwddyn.
The head of the household is a Farmer of a corn pasture (I think!)

Kind regards

Cathy

I shall have a look at the other census.

On the 1861 the Margaret Jehu is her mother but it could read Johns or maybe misheard Jones? Perhaps her mother married again or perhaps she was base born.

Someone put the 1861 up but the year of birth was wrong, she was 37 in the original image so not the right Margaret... Aaah but it wasn't the same one as Mel put up. She was born in Llanwddyn but they must have removed it when they realised it was a mistranscription.

On that one I put up Margaret Jehu is down as mother 54 Charwoman born 1807 Unmarried.

Mary is married but her hubby is not on that census and she is down as a Labourers wife.

Margaret Jehu is the mother to the head of the household Mary so will be the grandmother of the children. Can't find her in any other census yet?

Cathy that other census says Farmer of a Cows Pasture.

salimali Who are you connected to of her children please? That may give us a clue as to which one we are looking for.

Have you got their marriage cert please?

Well she's pretty consistant with the place of birth so let's hope it is all the same person? I hope so....

Edit: Except for the 1861 of course!

So this is the family you are searching.
