Hi,
I will be visiting Risca sometime, trying to find the places where some of my ELMS and
HURN family lived. (The Hurn's are really a sideline for me, I'm not researching
them much)
I have the addresses where they lived from the various census over the years.
I realise that a lot of the houses and streets will have been demolished by now, but I am
hoping that someone who lives at Risca, or has knowledge of Risca will be able to help me
pinpoint the areas please.
I'll give the census detail in case that helps to identify the area.
In 1841 William and Harriet HURN lived at Red House, Risca.

I'm only wanting to know the vague area that the addresses were at, so we can
