Henry THOMAS (Shipwright) 1 was born about 1811 in of, Llangan, Caerfyrddin, Cymru. Henry married Anne DAVIES about 1838 in of, Llangan, Caerfyrddin, Cymru.

B  A son was born to Henry THOMAS and Ann DAVIES, Henry, in 1840, which appears
to be the same Henry DAVIES of the 1841 Llangen census (10 mo. old, which puts
it almost to the week the proper age would be) and the Henry THOMAS of the 1851
census, which would make sense, since his father's surname was THOMAS.
(A Lewis DAVIES signed as informant for this birth, making it 99%
trustworthy - since the only ones with this name were probably the father of
Anne and probably a brother as well.)
Another note:  In a letter to Mrs. Mary SMITH dated 23 Jun 1959, Henry E.
CHRISTIANSEN says this child was born out of wedlock to Anne.  This would
possibly explain the surname change.

Anne DAVIES [Parents] 1 was born in 1815 in Caerfyrddin, Cymru. Anne married Henry THOMAS (Shipwright) about 1838 in of, Llangan, Caerfyrddin, Cymru.

B  1841 Llangen Carmarthen census.

Birth certificate and 1841 and 1851 Llangan censuses.  See also note in
father's note field.

Lewis DAVIS [Parents] 1 was born in Cal 1777 in Llanboidy, Caerfyrddin, Cymru. He was christened 2 on 10 Feb 1778 in St. Peter parish, Caerfyrddin, Caerfyrddin, Cymru. He died on 28 Oct 1860 in Gronisha, Llangan, Caerfyrddin, Cymru. Lewis married Margaret BONA on 18 Aug 1800 in St. Peter parish, Caerfyrddin, Caerfyrddin, Cymru.

B  1851 Llangan Carmarthen census. (Abode:  Lletherach).  His profession also listed as Agricultural Labourer. His name was also listed as being John DAVIS in one record, but Lewis seems to be almost certainly the one.
D  Certificate - Civil Reg.  He is listed as Cooper in another record, and the person in attendance at death was from New Inn - Llanboidy.  Cert. in pos. of Shon EDWARDS.

NOTES/LOG:
-- In 1851 Llangan census, he had a grandson, Henry DAVIES with him, age 10 born in Llangan.  In 1841 census, had a person (rel. unknown) with him Henry THOMAS, 10 mo. born in cty.  This could both be the same person - especially if a daughter of Lewis' married a THOMAS or had a child by him.  A genealogist doing work for the family sounded fairly sure in a letter that Henry was an illegitimate son of Anne's and that she later married Henry Thomas.  The interesting fact is that he appeared as Henry DAVIES in the 1851 census and Henry THOMAS in the 1841 census - unknown why this would be so.

OCCUPATION:  Cooper.

His calculated birth year at death was 1777, but can often be a few years off when you are in your 80's.  I'm going by this because I found a Lewis Davis in the same parish his wife grew up in and they were married in, SRE, 7 Oct 2018.

Margaret BONA [Parents] 1 was christened 2 on 04 Dec 1774 in St. Peter parish, Caerfyrddin, Caerfyrddin, Cymru. She died on 12 Feb 1859 in Gron, Llangan, Caerfyrddin, Cymru. Margaret married Lewis DAVIS on 18 Aug 1800 in St. Peter parish, Caerfyrddin, Caerfyrddin, Cymru. This relationship has been challenged.

B  1851 Llangan, Carmarthen census. (Abode:  Lletherach).  Her town is spelled 'Midrim' in the census, but 'Mydrim' is a few miles to the southeast of where her husband lived.  Found under 'Meidrim,' Carms.
D  Was about 10 years off.  It appears that a son was the informant - living at New Inn, Llanboidy, Lewis Davies - nothing conclusive proved, though. Certificate in pos. of Shon EDWARDS.

NOTES/LOG:
--  Maiden name unknown.
-- It seems to me, I saw a record in Wales of their marriage, her maiden name being DAVIS also.  Double-check the videotaped records.
-- In Feb 1997 addendum OI, mar 18 Aug 1800 Carmarthen, Carmarthen,Wales, SS 28 Feb 1975 LANGE.  No other Margaret near this time.  There is some possibility this could be it.
