thank you both I dunno ant mary I did see that and the only name which looks to be in the family is a Diane but not untill a few generations down.

The marriage is great thank you I couldnt find that because I didnt know if they were from around there thats why the census would have come in handly.

Is there any more marriages between a David Owen/Owens and a Elizabeth Prichard?

Ooww and you Welsh geography is spot on it would have been the local records ofice at the time.

Thanks
Craig

Hi all

could anyone look up an Elizabeth Owen/Owens in the 1871 census? I have got her birth certificate whcih states she was born 10 Nov 1866 in Mountain Ash, Llanwonno, Glamorgan, Wales. I have her parents as David Owen whos a coalminer and her mother was also Elizabeth Owen formerly Prichard. I was wondering if anyone could find them in the 1871 census? That is all I have got on her and the family sadly :(

I have searched and searched the records but have come up with nothing. any help would be fab.

I got her in the 1881 census where she is a servant at 47 Woodland Street, Mountain Ash.

Thank you
Craig
