Hi List,
May have sent this previous but not to list. l and had some help from
Pauline off list due to my new email address not working I hope it is now.
I am looking for the place of Birth of William THOMAS he Married
Elizabeth
ROBERTS in 1815 at Cilycwm.
He lived in and around Llanfair ar Bryn had children Charlotte 1816,
Thomas 1817, Jane 1819, John 1821, Robert 1822 [Died1827]
Mary 1824, Iasaac 1826, David 1824 and Robert 1835. [Another Robert 1827]
It is in the family bible that William Thomas Vipond dropped the Vipond
and used the name William Thomas when he married Elizabeth Roberts in
1815. Viponds are in the area from about 1754 but not many Males
christenings or Deaths which makes me wonder if they are in non conformist
records.
As William had a son born 1835 their must be a chance that the family are
around on the 1841 list. It would be very significant if William's Birth
was in the County of Carmarthen [or even more if elsware!!!]
Would it be possible for a look up on the 1841 or 1851 census [Pauline
could not find them on the 1851 census] to see what Parish or County he
was born in? The children were all born in Llanfair ar Bryn I cannot find
William or Elizabeth on the 1861 census but can possibly find some
of the Children.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
David Thomas
