I am trying to find the parents of Thomas Price or Pryce who was born
in Radnorshire in about 1808. According to the 1881 census, when he
was living in Dowlais, Merthyr Tydfil, he was born in "Llanbadarn."
Unfortunately there are three "Llanbadarns" in Radnorshire; Llanbadarn
Fawr, Llanbadarn Garreg and Llanbadarn Fynydd. There is someone of the
right age who was christening in Llanbadarn Fawr, but I doubt if he is
the right one. He is probably the Thomas Price whose birthplace is
given specifically as "Llanbadarn Fawr" in various censuses. The
parish records for Llanbadarn Garreg do not list a Thomas Price of the
right age.
Unfortunately the parish records for Llanbadarn Fynydd have not been
scanned and put on FindmyPast. Does anyone on this list have easy
access to the Christening records for Llanbadarn Fynydd? If so I would
be grateful if you could check if there are any Thomas Prices
christened in the period 1804-1812.
Many thanks,
Roy
