My gg grandfather Josephus Erasmus was born approximately 1826 (don't know where yet). He married Mary Edwards in Pontypool, Monmouthshire, South Wales in 1852 and died 1877, in Monmouthshire aged 51. He was a coal miner.

Josephus and Mary had many children, Elizabeth 1852, William (my ggrandfather) 1855, Margaret 1857, Hannah (possibly), Mary 1862, Ann 1863, Martha 1865, Josephus Thomas 1871, Janet 1872, John 1874 all born Pontypool registration district (probably Trevethin).

Anyone claim any of these?!
