Hi Sylvia It was only when I looked at your previous email that I saw that the family surname was Davies, with an 'e'! I'm not sure how common the surname is on your side of the pond but it makes a great deal of difference over here! The 1891 census entry you mention includes a great deal of detail which allows some assumptions to be made. As well as Thomas and Elizabeth Davies there is Joseph Button, who is listed as father-in-law of Thomas. It seems reasonable to assume that Button was Elizabeth's maiden name before she married Richard Hall. Also living under the same roof are Joseph, John and Richard Hall - all teenage boys listed as stepsons of Thomas. I'm sure these are Elizabeth's children by her first husband. As far as the address is concerned Lower Gamm (?) Terrace is Lower Garn Terrace in Blaenavon. http://tinyurl.com/24rrqq. The 1881 census lists Elizabeth with Richard and living at 4 Long Rank, Llanwenarth Ultra http://tinyurl.com/2odj5h. They had three children at that time - Joseph, Martha and John - by 1891 Martha, now aged 15, was already in service at Goytre Hall http://tinyurl.com/38htvo Both Elizabeth Button and her father were born in Frome, Somerset - I found her in the 1851 census, still in Somerset, but she was already in Llanwenarth Ultra ten years later.

Hi Robert. Thank you for replying, The info you sent I have so you are correct. I have the name Davies, why I misspelt it I haven't a clue, I know the Welsh spell it this way, I was born in Middlesex and my husband and father were Welsh, I left England in 1957 age 23, 50 years ago :-((((((. wish I hadn.t. Many Thanks again. Regards.
