Is there anyone who knows Pontypool, Sow Hill, and the Tranch, who knows
what the names of the first few houses on Crumlin road are called. There are
three old cottages next to the first house which particularly interest me.

I think the reference is to Sow Hill, Pontypool, not Stow Hill, Newport.
Looking at my 1842/44 Pigot's Directory of Monmouthshire (CDs produced by
Archive CD Books to assist fellow researchers
http://www.archivecdbooks.org)
I see that there is an Ann JONES, China, Glass, etc. Dealer in Sow Hill.

Dear Chick
It may be worth you doing a little investigating before investing in the
1861 census for Newport because parts of it are missing. My family was in
the Stow Hill area prior to 1861, and unfortunately they are on the missing
section in 1861. Mike JOHN helped me to clarify this situation, as he was
the one who told me that the census had not survived in its entirity - I had
been looking all over the place.
However, you may be more fortunate - happy hunting.
regards
Anne Welch (neé Christopher), Woking, Surrey, England

Hi
On the Sow Hill page is there any Jones and or Marshall's on that page?
Have
been planning to get the 1861 census as soon as my finances allow.
