Hello Bette
I agree with Brenda that it could be Garnfach, and if so, there is
just one John DANIEL of the right age in the 1851 census for this
area:
DANIEL, David, HD, M, 39, Coal Miner, Brecon Vaynor
Anne, Wife, 31, Brecon Lampeter
Anne, DA, 8, MON Aberystruth
John, SO, 5, "
William, SO, 2, "
WILLIAMS, William, Lodger, U, 14, Coal Haulier, MON Aberystruth
HOWELLS, John, Lodger, U, 20, Coal Miner, MON Llandilo
You will need to obtain John's birth certificate to determine whether
this is your ancestor and his family.

Could be Garnfach, Aberystruth, Monmouthshire. Does Blaina,
Coalbrookvale , Nantyglo crop up in any of your information?
best wishes
Brenda
