I have looked up
the Ancestry site for births and can find no Thomas Rees during 1846
registered in Merthyr Tydfil. Should I be expecting Merthyr Tydfil?
Yes, Tommie

I couldn't see him on the 2nd / 3rd Q of 1846 either - on ancestry images -
may be a casualty of the under-registration of births in the 1840s
A couple of specialist Jamaican research sites which may help with marriage

Subject: [GLA] Birth of Thomas Leyshon Rees
Hi all
I wonder if I could get some suggestions on how to get a birth certificate
for my wife's ggrandfather Thomas Leyshon Rees. From correspondence he
states his birth date to be June 1, 1846 (he could be lying - naturally).
The census returns I find him in 1871 and 1891 gives his birth as Dowlais,
Glamorganshire. He was not at home (in Milford Haven) for the 1901 census
and he would have been in Jamaica during the 1881 census. He also married
in
Jamaica - is there a way of getting a marriage certificate? I have looked
up
the Ancestry site for births and can find no Thomas Rees during 1846
registered in Merthyr Tydfil. Should I be expecting Merthyr Tydfil?
Tommy
