Find Ancestors

I am so grateful for all the extra information. I am taking the grandchildren to visit in Pontypridd in early December and it will be like an 'ancestral' tour for them as I am sure many streets etc still exist.

Thank you all so much for your prompt replies and outstanding knowledge :-) :-)

Thanks for the photo link Claire in Wales. :-)

The lane to Goldsland and Wenvoe to the east contains the Old Wallace Farm and the New Wallace Farm. Lane between North Cliff Farm and Great Hamston. References ...

William LOUGHOR of Wenvoe married Cecilia LOUGHOR of Llancarfan on 14 May 1825
@ Llancarfan

Following that through to the 1841 census we find most of the family (except
for...Thomas, Robert, John, Edwin & Mary) living at the Great House,
Michaelston-super-ely, though William's age is given as 40 (b.1801) not 44....

44 002 005, Great House, Michaelston-super-ely
LOUGHER, William, 40, Farmer
LOUGHER, Cissel, 35
LOUGHER, Richard, 14
LOUGHER, William, 12
LOUGHER, Daniel, 10
LOUGHER, David, 8
LOUGHER, Edward, 7
LOUGHER, Evan, 5
LOUGHER, Phillip, 3
LOUGHER, Cissel, 11M

All above born in Glamorgan.

Naturally we follow this through to the 1851 and indeed find the above family
on the Llantrisant fiche living at Treguff Place with a vastly expanding
family! Though the ages are somewhat confusingly different from 1851.....
