Last month I inquired about Henry Pitt MEREDITH. Death certificates received this week for other family members have yielded some very helpful clues about him. Can you answer some of the questions that follow or offer suggestions of what to do next? The 1881 census for Abergavenny, Monmouthshire looks very possible but poses some questions. It is RG 11, piece 5234, folio 58, page 27. 1. Henry MERDITH (slight spelling difference) is indexed as age 40, born in Cloduck, Herefordshire, a retired goldminer. He was living at 6 Brecon Road. When I look at the actual image, I think his age is 60. Does it look like that to you? Henry Pitt MEREDITH was one of three children in the family christened/baptized on 30 October 1825 in Clodock, Herefordshire, so his exact year of birth is not known. 2. It is believed Henry Pitt MEREDITH had two wives. The name of his first wife is not yet known. He married second wife, Ann Hamer, in January 1869 in Hay, Breconshire. This fits with the ages of children and name of wife shown on this census. 3. His son William T. MERDITH was born in America about 1862. Does this refer just to the United States or could it also include Canada? The only Henry MEREDITH individuals I have found so far on passenger lists in right time period for New York City went to Canada. Can you find Henry and his family on the 1871 census in the British Isles? Henry Pitt MEREDITH registered the death of his mother Elizabeth MEREDITH (born Elizabeth PITT and widow of James MEREDITH) in June 1875 at Redlay Farm, Cusop, Herefordshire. She was buried in Clyro, Radnorshire (across the river). Henry gave his residence as 68 Merthyr Road, Abergavenny, Monmouthshire. When his brother David MEREDITH died at Redlay Farm, Cusop, Herefordshire, in August 1881, Henry Pitt MEREDITH registered the death. This time Henry gave his residence as Brecon Road, Abergavenny, Monmouthshire. (This is a major clue that makes me think the above 1881 census record actually is Henry.) David too was buried in Clyro, Radnorshire. I have found Henry Pitt MEREDITH with his parents and a couple of siblings on the 1841 census at Clyro, Radnorshire. The parents and brother David were on 1851, 1871, 1881 census records at Redlay Farm, Cusop, Herefordshire. Have not been able to locate Henry Pitt MEREDITH on the 1851 or 1861 census records. There is a remote possibility that he is in the United States for the 1860 census, but without name of first wife it is hard to tell for sure. Nor have I found a possible death year for him that fits known details. Looking forward to hearing from listers that may be able to help. Ruth Ann Baker United States
