Hi
Can't help at the moment with Thomas Morris but there is an AberTrinant Farm in
Llanwrda, Carmarthenshire.

Subject: [MON] Rev. Thomas MORRIS, Newport ca.1850
Good-morning Monmouthshire List!
I'm a Glam Lister who has just popped over the border to solicit your help. I have a
Glamorgan MI for an Elisabeth POWELL, who died in 1852, which tells me that she was the
'daughter of the late Rev. Thomas MORRIS of Newport' .
The 1851 census tells me that Elisabeth/Elizabeth was born in 'Abertrinant,
Carmarthenshire' ca. 1810. The place does not appear to exist - perhaps it should be
Abertrinant, Merionethshire, or maybe a large house or farm name in Carmarthenshire -
still to be resolved??? I have found what I believe to be Elizabeth's marriage in
Newport in 1850 and have just ordered the certificate, which may help me a little more on
her/her father's origins. Meanwhile, I am wondering whether the name Rev. Thomas
MORRIIS of Newport rings any bells with Mon Listers. From the scanty evidence I am
assuming that he was probably born around 1780 +/- 10 years and that he was a Vicar or
minister of some denomination in Newport for several years in the 1840's, I can see no
sign of him in the 1851 census so I assume he had died by then.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
Best regards,
Ron
