I presume you mean Llandilo in South Wales and not Llandilo in New South Wales Australia, lol Any idea where and when he was born? Or do you mean 1835 is his birthdate? Nah you can't mean that if he was a blacksmith in 1835! lol Are you sure it is Stevens and not Stephens? My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

The 2 year old's father was a smith by the name of Stephen Stephen. Looks like you need the Cavalry - Hey Paul where are you?? LOL My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

But, there's no shortage of David Stevens in South Wales so I think we need to know some more about him---any other locations, persons, or dates associated with him? And judging by James' last comments, that doesn't seem too likely? My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Only hit was a David Stevenson who was from Scotland and living in Lancashire. Didn't find him in 1841 though. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
Paul Hilton Posts: 2605 Joined: 21st Nov 2004 Location: UK	quotePosted at 22:18 on 24th April 2011 Well, I have the 1841 Census for Llandilo, and if he's there, we'll find him. Not living at The Forge though, but there is a lot of residences to check if he's in any of them. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

There are no other Stephens/Stevens mentioned in the lists for Llandilo-Fawr. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
