I am trying to locate a Reginald Davies. Born in Pontypool approximately 1908 to 1911. Fathers name Joseph. Mothers name Rose Davies. Could be Rose Reid.

Kind Regards

Eddie

Shirley that was the 1911 census I found earlier...I am guessing that he was maybe only weeks old and they thought they didn't have to list him...hence going for the March 1911 birth

I think I see Reginald S (Reginald Stanley) on 1911 as son of Edgar and Annie so I don't believe he will be that one Jude?

Eddie,

Did your Reginald marry and if so, who did he marry please?

Could it have been a Gladys or a Clarice?

He's not Reginald Arthur (1905) - looks like he has parents James & Mary in 1911.

So looks as if it's the Reginald reg Dec qtr 1907 or Reginald Mansel Davies

lancashireAnn

lancashireAnn Report 14 Feb 2016 15:49

there is also the possibility of this one

Births Sep 1909 (>99%)
Davies Reginald Abergavenny 11a 47

If the 1911 posted without the child in 1911, they were living in Upper Cwmyoy which I think is reg district Abergavenny

ArgyllGran

ArgyllGran Report 14 Feb 2016 16:53

If he's the Dec qr 1907 Reginald, perhaps this is his death, in which case he would be one of the deceased children mentioned on 1911 census:

Deaths Mar 1909 (>99%)
DAVIES Reginald 1 Pontypool 11a 129



BUT presumably not, or Edward wouldn't know about him.

HeyJudeB4Beatles

HeyJudeB4Beatles Report 14 Feb 2016 16:57

Ann, in 1911 it is Upper Cwmynyscoy, Panteg

CWMYNYSCOY is 1 mile south of Panteg - I think this would likely be Pontypool rather than Abergavenny.

Reginald Mansell was born 06 November 1907 (as Shirley has posted) - we could do with Eddie confirming if he knows who Reginald married

thanks for the correction Jude. I did not realise they were 2 different places - I have ancestors from Cwmyoy and assumed it was the same
