Thanks for the info Pat, I will cross check and see if it matches, the age is 2 years out but that could be ok. Would you be able to pass my contact info onto the person you mentioned Many thanks Paul -----Original Message----- From: Pat Powell [mailto:pat@pcubed.demon.co.uk] Sent: 19 October 2005 16:53 To: CARMARTHENSHIRE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [Cmn-L] Phillips, Levi Hello Paul When I saw the subject line of your e-mail at first I thought I may have found someone related to my Levi Phillips - but unfortunately not as mine was born about 1810. Is your Levi the one shown in 74 Garth Road Cwmdu in 1881 with children David (24) Margaret (16) William (14) and George (12) If so I have corresponded with someone else re this family in the past. I think this is your Levi in the 1841 census:- Begelly district enum dist 7 Folio 19 Page 11 Bethesda William Phillips 56 Farmer Lab Y Elizabeth " 56 Y William " 15 Y George " 11 Y Levi " 7 Y Do you have any more information to cross check? I can look up my past notes and see what else I can find for you.

Hello Paul 2 years difference is nothing between census ages. If the Garth road family is yours then I think I can say that the Begelly family was definitely the right match. Levi was unmarried and an iron miner in the 1851 census aged 16 lodging in Merthyr in John Street in the home of Isaac Phillips (aged 31) also of Tenby , his wife Jane and 2 children. He eventually married Eliza Davies (from Carmarthen in spite of the birthplaces shown in the census) daughter of William Davies, a weaver. I have a copy of the marriage certificate which I obtained for Susan several years ago. I haven't heard from her for some time - but hopefullt she is at the same e-mail address so I will try and see if it gets to her. If however you are not sure if the Garth Road family is yours - let me know what information you do have that led you to them - as there are several Levi Phillips of the right sort of age in Pembrokeshire in 1841 (but the nearest to Tenby at the time was the Begelly one) Cheers Pat In message <000001c5d559$d9c81020$c4438056@ownera6e694167>, Paul Phillips <c.phillips01@btconnect.com> writes >Thanks for the info Pat, I will cross check and see if it matches, the >age is 2 years out but that could be ok.
