Hi all, I have found Clarice May WATTS, born 1894 in Westminster, London, residing with her grandfather in Haverfordwest in the 1901 census but I am not confident I have deciphered his name correctly. The reference is WATTS, Clarice M, HAVERFORDWEST, Pembrokeshire, RG13 piece 5129 folio 65 page 2. Clarice is the last entry on the page with her grandfather 3rd from bottom. I can see his occupation is Station Master but I am also not sure if I have got the abbreviation that follows it correct. If someone could have a look and let me know what they think I would be grateful. Thanks, Anne Mountifield
Name is probably Caleb Morris - he's on the 1891 with that name, and wife Anne there too. Reference Source Citation: Class: RG12; Piece: 4537; Folio 59; Page 6; No idea of the abbreviation for the Railway company.

As might be expected, I read it as "GW Rlwy" i.e. the Great Western, or God's Wonderful, Railway! -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg
Long way from London I think its G W Rly which should mean Great Western Railway and that station was a GWR Ron Lankshear -Sydney NSW (from London-Shepherds Bush/Chiswick) try my links http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~lankshear/ On 2011-05-27 8:00 AM, Anne Mountifield wrote: > The reference is WATTS, Clarice M, HAVERFORDWEST, Pembrokeshire, RG13 piece 5129 folio 65 page 2. > > Clarice is the last entry on the page with her grandfather 3rd from bottom. > > I can see his occupation is Station Master but I am also not sure if I have got the abbreviation that follows it correct. >
