Hi
Can SKS who has access to the 1871 index tell me if these people or familes are in Blaina
or Abertillery in 1871. John Jenkins and Ellen Taylor were married in Blaina in 1875,
address was Abertillery where John was a Sinker. Am having trouble finding these
families.
In 1871 John Jenkins would be aged around 16.
His family:
Daniel Jenkins (father) Eliza Jenkins (mother)
Children: Daniel about 20, Sydney about 14, John about 16 ( all born in Bream) plus
another boy and 2 girls names unknown at this stage.
Her Family:
In 1871 Ellen Taylor would be aged somewhere between 11 and 14
Her father was reportedly Henry Taylor, carpenter. This was reported on her marriage cert
but may or may not be correct. To date I have not found her birth certificate and have
been unable to find her in the 1861 census. She appears to be an enigma. So any
information will be greatfully received.

Sorry Gayle - it doesn't look as though your JENKINS family has reached
Bedwellty by 1871 - there are a few possibilities for either John or Daniel
Jr, but not together, and not with the right set of adults. The
possibilites are below, just in case.
There's one possibility for your Ellen TAYLOR, not living with a father
called Henry; she's below, too, again just in case.
Sorry not to definitely find your people!
Kate.
