Still don't see William in 1881 or 1891.

Will have to come back to this later. Ancestry.co.uk is playing up this norming - and was last night too. It keeps throwing me out and bringing up Ancestry.com pages instead, and inviting me to pay a sub.

Chris thank you.

I found the report of Margaret's wedding last night too so I can get it translated. It mentions several family members. :-D
I believe at the end it mentions the death of William Lloyd and there is a death of William Lloyd in 1916 of the correct age.

Thank you for the link to William Davies and for all your help.

Thank you for the Genuki link.
If I remember correctly there are Lloyds from Hubberston - not mine but I will double check
Thank you for your help.

Finally found the farm address given in the newspaper article. The James family were farming there so it possible that William Lloyd moved the sheep to slaughter them elsewhere.
Whether it is my William or another is something I probably won't ever know given that he was in Glamorganshire in 1901 ;-)

ArgyllGran Report 4 Apr 2018 21:52

Probably William's parents' marriage:

Marriages Jun 1852 (>99%)
Lloyd Stephen Cardigan 11b 21
Rees Jane Cardigan 11b 21

Therefore William's birth;

LLOYD, WILLIAM mms REES
GRO Reference: 1859 D Quarter in CARDIGAN Volume 11B Page 2

(Just checking in case he had actually been born in Milford Haven , in spite of what the censuses say - but no. )

Thank you. I'm currently trawling through the 1901 census trying to find Ffynongleision

It's in Penbryn Cardigan but despite finding the enumerators page I'm blowed if I can find the address to see who was living there.
Can find it easily in other census. :-S

You are correct there are a number of butchers called William Lloyd!!

The 1911 posted by AG looks a good bet - Married for 33 years would be right from 1878-1911. This looks like the same hand that has completed the original form.

Then it's been altered to Widower and none for children (these both look like the same hand but not that of the original).

As it was the married woman who was supposed to complete number of years married and children born then the 33 and none have been crossed out, this time in red, so probably by the enumerator as wrongly completed.

Can't explain the Old Milford for pob !!

I saw that one and wondered whether it could be him.

ArgyllGran Report 4 Apr 2018 18:39

Perhaps they only married for respectability, as she was maybe pregnant at the time, but then they never lived together.


Maybe ?? - although he says he has no children.
First he said he was married, then scored that out and wrote "widower".
He wrote "Pembrokeshire" first for his POB, and later added Old Milford.
(I know Nevern's nowhere near Milford Haven - if that's what's meant by Old Milford.)

But he's a butcher, the right age, and the address is almost identical to that in 1901.

"The old district of Ystradyfodwg was named after the church at Ton Pentre."

Looks as if he was prosecuted for removing sheep from farm in 1904 in contravention of the sheep scab regulations so was back in Pembrokeshire then.

Just checking out spelling of farm name.

Thanks Chris for reminder of newspaper link :-D
