Dear Susan,
Further to my earlier msg, this is from the Gwynedd Archives online
database. I wonder if he is connected to you? Tudweiliog is a parish
adjacent to Aberdaron. It would be relatively easy to search the 1871
census for Tudweiliog which a lister might be willing to do for you as there
is a computer database on
Ancestry.com.
I searched only for Richard and Benjamin together. You get many more
options to trawl through using just Benjamin as a search term.
Of course, this might not be the labourer Richard Benjamin but might be a
son or unconnected!
Yours,
Ian
