Bernard,
This appears to be your Thomas WOOSENCRAFT, although his birthplace is shown
as Radnorshire --- he may have always assumed Llanidloes was where he was
born. (Note: There are quite a few WOSENCRAFT/WOZENCRAFT and every
possible variation of the spelling in Radnorshire in 1881.)
Also checked for all TOY's in Wales --- most in Glamorgan and
Monmouthshire -- none born Scotland --- none living or born in
Montgomeryshire. No George TOY's and the only Mary was b.1874 with no
connection to Montgomeryshire. (See separate email regarding George TOY's
in Scotland 1881.)

Subject: 1881 Census Look-up Please
Hi Listers,
I'm trying to locate two families that arrived in New York on May 16,
1907.
WOOSENCRAFT, Thomas 37yrs British ( Welsh ) b. Llandiloe, Wales
WOOSENCRAFT, Mary ( nee TOY ? ) 37yrs British ( Welsh ) b. Welshpool,
Wales
At the time of the 1881 Census they would have been about 11yrs, and I
think Llandiloe should be Llanidloes. Travelling with them was a George (
Christopher ? ) TOY who was 21yrs who indicated his birthplace as
Llandiloe. He's not going to be on the census, but the odd thing is that
when he came to Arizona his vital records show that he and his parents
were born in SCOTLAND. ( Glasgow ? )
Unless there are two George TOY's, possibly related, that came to America
about the same time, who happen to have had a Welsh and Scottish
connection. Perhaps the census may reveal something.
Regards,
Bernard
Phoenix, Arizona
