John married his wife, Annie (nee White) in Llangynwyd in the last Quarter of 1890 (1890 Q4 Vol 11A Page 1244) - when he was 18. However, this may not be correct as the record shows to be just 14 !

Not sure from which parent he descends.

Confusion about this person's christian name. ?Male or female? On the Census form the name is marked as 'Daughter' , so should it be GWEN not Oliver?
