help please, this man is giving me a permanent headache !
I'm stuck with a James PINCHIN. On his daughter's marriage cert of 1891 his
occupation is given as Miner. This daughter was born in 1851 when his occupation was
given as Haulier (or Hawker) so he must have been alive in 1850, but he doesn't appear
on 1881 LDS census or 1891 (which I bought from Gwent FHS) or 1901. If he was deceased in
December 1891 when marriage took place would it have stated so on marriage cert, was this
the 'norm' or not ?. and if occ. was Haulier would this still be connected to the
pit ?
Can some one tell me the site where births etc from local newspapers are please I seem
to remember this from a while ago......... Free press I think.
researching, WETTON, PINCHIN, DAVIES, BOLT (BOULT) TRATT, HEELS, WOODS, YOUNG, LLOYD,
FLOWERS, OWENS, GILES all in and around Trevethin,Garndiffiath, Talywain and Pontypool.
any help gatefully received.
