I am trying to find what might have happened to Rees Pugh DAVIES. In the 1841 census of Blaenpenal, he appears as the 3 year old son of Thomas and Mary Davies. This family emigrated to Oak Hill, Ohio in 1846. He does not appear in the 1850 Jackson County, Ohio census with his family. If there is anyone with the ability to look up to see if he possibly died before the family left Wales, I would appreciate it. If not, I will re-order the parish records and search for that here. BTW, I received the Rowlands book on Family History research in Wales yesterday. Those of you who recommended it were absolutely right! Thanks, a lot! Thanks for your consideration.
