Hi Jane
looking in the 1861 census - the family are living in llanrian,Pembs -
William Morris.Head.Widower.81.Blacksmith.Llanrian.
Ebenezer Richards.son in law.mar.32.slater. Llanddeiniolen, Carnarvonshire.
Dorothy Richards.Daughter.Mar.31.slaters wife.Llanrian.
Martha Ann Richards.Grandaughter,3.slaters daughter. llanrian.
Samuel Richards.Grandson.4 months.slaters son.Llanrian.
Martha James.servant.unmarried.16.House Servant. Llanrian.
so it does look like Dorothy was indeed a Morris.
in 1851 William Morris is in the same house "Courtyrysgwr"
William Morris.Head.mar.70.smith.Llanrian.
Martha Morris.wife.mar.60.smiths wife.Mote, Pembrokeshire.
John Morris.son.U.28.labourer.Llanrian.
Chrismas Thomas Evans.Nursing child.5.Roach, Pembrokeshire.

Subject: [GWYNEDD] Ebenezer RICHARDS of Llanrhian
I am looking for a marriage of Ebenezer RICHARDS in Llanrhian to a
Dorothy,
probably MORRIS sometime in the 1850s. He was a farmer, but may have
originally been a quarryman. He was originally from Dinorwic in Gwynedd. He
had a son George Henry RICHARDS, born in Llanrhian around 1870. I expect
they had other children, but i know nothing of the family at that time.
George was my gg grandfather.
