Hi John,

Have you the details of father for Henry listed on the marriage certificate,
I have a feeling that the family I found in 1851 Brecon with Grandfather
David and Grandmother Kezia is yours. I also found them in 1841 still living on
the same farm which was named Cornwall which Jeff mentioned, this was before
Henry was born.
1841 CENSUS
David Pritchard Head age 50
Kezia Pritchard Wife age 45
David Pritchard Son age 20 (Possible father of Henry)
Elizabeth Pritchard Daur age 15
Richard Pritchard Son age 15
Kezia Pritchard Daur age 10
Ann Pritchard Daur age 10
William Pritchard Son age 8
James Pritchard Son age 6
All born in County of Brecon.
The ages on this Census was not always correct as you can see some were
listed as same age but not twins, the enumerator rounded children's ages down by
as much as 5 years.
On the 1851 Census David junior was not living with family so could have
been married and both the children Henry and Mary listed on the 1851 Census were
staying with the grandparents at the farm.
The only children listed in 1841 still at home in 1851 was Elizabeth,
Richard, Anne, and James.
If you obtain the marriage certificate and fathers name is David you have
the correct family, but with Mary Hayes that will not be so easy to locate her
records because of her being born in a different Country.
Regards Barbara
