"Yaki da" is about the limit of my Welsh I'm afraid! (Smiley emoticon, but haven't worked out how to get them in the text)

Here's the death I didn't post last night - apologies. Not at all certain about it as haven't tracked him down in 1901 for sure. Your 1891 has them in the Merthyr Tydfil RD. There is a death that would fit Sarah in 1892 aged 65 in the Merthyr RD

Civil Registration event: Death

Name: SAMUEL, David

County: Glamorganshire
Year of registration: 1905

Stuart, thank you again.
I haven't located David or Sarah in 1901 either, maybe it's a good idea to find out ages when they died aand witnesses etc. :-)

I'm not yet convinced that David & Gwenllian are correct parents. In 1851 their son David was only 17 then! It would make him 19 at marriage to Sarah not 24. Similarly he would have been 14yrs marrying Ann Daniel!

Think I need to come forward in time and sideways to check sibling births if my William David as well as David and Sarah's deaths, before I try to go back further.

Will keep you posted. Diolch :-S
