Melanie, Suggest you check out the GENUKI pages for Cardiganshire at: http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/wal/CGN/index.html This will give you a thorough idea of what types of records are available. Please note also that the LDS (Mormons) have microfilmed all of the UK Census returns (1841 - 1891) and the Bishop's Transcripts of the parish registers (those that have survived). You can order these and a lot of other materials from the nearest LDS Family History Center. Gareth's Help Pages are chock-full of information: http://www.johngareth.freeserve.co.uk/hicks.html also the South/West Wales Lookup Exchange Pages (check CGN & All Wales): http://www.johngareth.freeserve.co.uk/lookup.html The 1841 census was the earliest census that named individuals.
