Do you ever get the feeling that sometimes your relative just don't want to
be found.
I have looked at the 1881 census and I can't find them.
Lewis Lewis 45yo born in Bedwellty
Elizabeth Lewis 41yo born Llanharan/ Llantrisant
Sarah Ann Lewis 8yo Born Heol Fach(Ystrad?) Rhondda
Lewis John Lewis ?yo Born ?
M. Lewis ?yo Born ?
I can't find any of them. Lewis and Elizabeth Morgan married in Pontypool
1859. Lewis died in Roath in 1888, Sarah Ann was born around Ystrad c1873.
Sarah Ann lived in William Street Ystrad when she married her cousin William
Lewis in 1893, and Elizabeth died in 1903 in Ystrad, but where were they.
Lewis was miner, but doubled as a Baptist minister.

Subject: [Bla'Gwent] James MAINEY of Ystradyfodwg
Hello Listers,
The 1881 census for 11 Wengraig Rd, Ystradyfodwg, Glamorgan, shows that a
coal miner by the name of James MAINEY was staying with a family named
SUMMERS.
James MAINEY was unmarried, aged 23, and originated from Radstock,
Somerset.
It is my belief that James, who was registered as John at birth, was one
of
two brothers who moved Wales, most likely because of their
occupations,
the
elder being Henry MAINEY who married Hannah JONES in 1873.
It is not known where he was in 1871, but neither he nor his brother were
in
Radstock.
Has anyone come across this fellow during their research?
