Thank you again Margaret, especially for the father of the groom. He is missing in the 1881 census - away in Cardiff! I would have needed the 1871 to find him without your help.

Thanks Jill, that's great and thank you Leslie also for the 1901 and extra children.
That has got me off to a good start with this family.
