Hi Ken Welcome to the list....... I do not have his marriage, but could this be his baptism......there is mention of a David and Jane also in Llandeilo fawr a farmer, so do you think he became a farmer after this event? 1816 19th May Llandilo fawr baptism register Thomas Morgan son David and Jane, Danyrallt Trecastle hamlet, Quarryman I have this marriage 1813 22 April Llandeilo fawr parish church David Morgan and Jane Davies Give me the info you have and I will see what I can find..... You say you have contacted Carmarthen registry office (not record office) to locate a marriage, do you know the names of their children to perhaps find a birth for one of them?

Hi Pauline, Thanks for the prompt reply David Morgan's marriage sounds right. In 1841 he was married to a Jane, and lived in Llanegwad. Thomas was living at home then and gave his age as 25, but I believe they used to round the ages up at that time. In 1851 Thomas was married to Sarah, and had a daughter, Elizabeth, 6 months old. In subsequent census returns they lived in Brynybeirdd, and he was an Ag Lab and his children were William (1855), David (1858), Rees (1861), Jane (1866), Just received your second e-mail, and yes that was the same census return as I had. I was interested in Rees (my great-grandfather), so I could try for his birth certificate as they would have been at Nant Coch at the same time. Many thanks for your responses A Merry Christmas Regards Ken

Hi Ken Keep us posted if you successfully obtain the birth certificate for Rees........ Any other questions you have, can I look elsewhere for you?
