Hi Pat:
I have tracked down the siblings of Joseph at least through 1901 census.
You are correct that Joseph lived in Llanelly - my grandfather David and
his wife lived in Burryport. I am interested in finding John relatives
but have been unsuccessful so far. I have found several living Phillips
descendants - my Grandmother Eliza's family (married to David John).
I am also trying to get back to earlier generations - James and his
family - so am looking for ideas on where to look. As I am in the US it
is difficult to do anything but work the internet.
Thanks. Grant

Hi Pauline - and Grant
Yes I have John family connections to Burry Port - but in the case of
Grant's family, looking at the census Joseph and Sarah lived for some
time in Llangunnock , then moved to Llanelly and up to and including the
1901 census the only link with Burry Port seems to be that one of their
children, David, was born there in about 1875.
Possibly they were there for a short time - as Joseph was connected to
the railway - but they must have moved on to Llanelly as they were there
in 1891 and 1901 and as far as I can see no links into any of the John
families I have looked into.
I don't know if Grant has been looking for later John links or whether
he has been unable to follow up any of Joseph's siblings.
There seems to be Sarah, Evan, Mary, and William.
Or could it be the previous generation to Joseph's father James that he
means?
Anyway it seens I can't really be of much help - sorry.
Cheers
Pat
