There does not appear to be a direct reference to this farm in this Census. However, there is a reference to a John Thomas, aged 39 (meaning he was born in 1810/11); born in Bettws, farming at Nantymoel Farm (shown as being in Bettws - which is odd ?) and he is a brother to THOMAS THOMAS. This Thomas Thomas is shown as being aged 50 (In 1921), meaning he was born about 1871. This ties in with the 1881 Census names s could be more than just coincidence. No clue as to where Nantymoel Farm was in Bettws.
