David R Lewis
- Old Whittington
Does anyone have any info. about David R Lewis, born Cwmbran 1871. He is my g grandmother's brother. David moved to Prospect Road, Old Whittington in the 1880's along with his mother, stepfather and various siblings. I have been able to trace all the siblings up to 1901 census but David is proving elusive. Have checked bmd's but can't find any marriage/death records for him. The only record that I can find for him, after leaving Wales is 1891 census when he was still living with his family. Maybe he emigrated? If so, where did he go?
