Deborah thanks for trying. Katherine, thats the one. His age is different again, he never seemed to know how old he was! I have however checked births from 1851 to 1859 and only found one other possible birth in Neath so am beginning to wonder if his family are strays, and he didn't know where he was born either!

If anyone has the time I would appreciate a 1891 look-up for Joseph Fowler and wife Elizabeth living Sion or Zion Hill in 1881. There are more than one with the same age and profession (mason)and father and I have the wrong birth certificate. I am unable to find another birth having looked between 1855-1859 and need more clues as he lied about his age on all other census. Many thanks in anticipation Marion
