Evan Williams: 1881 census
Evan Williams: 1881 census
Evan, I suspect is my great great great grandfather's - Matthew Williams' - brother. The son of David and Elizabeth Williams (my great great great great grandparents).
This is not verified, but he is the only Evan on the 1881 census in the Trefeglwys area. The date of birth is also 5 years out, compared to the 1841 census. Noting this census only recorded ages in 5 year blocks, this coule be possible.
Otherwise, Evan could have moved away by 1881 and I should extend my search. Note the only other Evan's in Montgomershire are in the north east of the county. The second possibility is he had died. I need to check other sources, before extending my field.
