Hi Pauline
I use Find my Past site a lot and the copy of 1851 Census page was not
too clear & their index gave it as Llanydog
I can now see it is 'Llangeler'
1851 Census –– Carmarthenshire - Llandilofawr - Llandilo Town -
HO107/2471/F388/P15
67 King Street,
Benjamin Davies - head - 51 - sub bailiff to court - Carmarthenshire – Llangeler
Anne Davies - wife - mar - age 51 - blank - Carmarthenshire, Llanfihangel-arth
I was unable to find them on the 1861 Census on the 1871 Census their
place of births are odd!
1871 Census – Carmarthenshire - Llandilofawr - Llandilo Town - RG10/4587/F /P18
Carmarthen Street ‘Bank? – schedule 97
Benjamin Davies – head – mar – age 71 – County Court Bailiff - CMN,
Llanfihangel ar Arth
Anne Davies – head – mar – age 73 – wife of Bailiff - Cardiganshire, Banfer(?)
I had the following from the Carmarthenshire Marriage index
Carmarthenshire Marriage at Parish Church - Llangynog
ID: - Date: 31 January 1822
Groom: Benjamin Davies
Spouse: Anne Davies
It seemed a a good match but where is Llangynog?
There were other possible marriages.
If I had been able to find them on the 1861 Census it may have made it
easier to know thier birth places.
My 71 yr old brain is having a bit of a struggle on this one, so I do
appreciate any help you can give in pointing me in the right
direction.
Thanks,
Desmond

Hi Desmond
Where was your Benjamin Davies living in 1851 census.......I do not know of
a parish named Llanydog..........do not have that place in my 1851 census
index, the only Benjamin Davies in Llandeilo fawr in 1851 was born
Llangeler, he was sub bailiff to county court......what was the occupation
of yours please, if this is not the one....
We only have the burials to 1875 for Llandeilo fawr sorry, send an email to
Carmarthen archives (record office) to ask if they would look for you, worth
a try.
St Llandog, is that a mis-spelling of Llanllawdog, or Llangadog
etc......could you let me know which one - thanks
get back to me and I will see what I can find
Pauline
