Note on Husband: John BARRETT - shared note

Witness to Hettie's wedding 3/10/1840 Wedding by special licence at Laugharne with William David and Thomas Rees as witnesses 1841 Aged "55" i.e 55-60 ie born 1781-86. Had a man servant Moved from Waincorgam in Llangain to Ysgyborfawr sometime between 1825 and 1839. 1841 Census HO 107 / 1382/11 Fo9 Pg10 Parish of Llanboidy, Scyborfawr (Ysguborfawr) John Barrett 55 Farmer Y Rachel do 55 Y Mary do 12 Y William David 60 MS Y Marriage Bond 1808 Bond between John Barrett, farmer of the parish of Llangain in the county of Carmarthen and Thomas Jones of the Borough of Carmarthen, gentleman. Also Rachel Rees of parish of Laugharne, spinster. Before the Revd William Higgs Barker Clerk, Master of Arts, Surrogate. Dated 4th July 1808 Year of birth calculated from age on his MI (60). The Death Certificate for the John Barrett who died at the Lamb Inn in St Clears in 1844 says he was a Victuler and the informant was Thomas Barrett of Bishop Court, Laugharne. His daughters Jane (Jenet) and Martha were living there in 1841 with David & Mary Morris. The connexion with Bishop Court makes it likely that John Barrett had a son called Thomas who I don't know about. The original handwritten tree was uncertain of John Barrett's first name - there was a memory of a Thomas Barrett which could have been this one or could have been a memory of Thomas Rees, Rachel's father.

Note on Wife: Rachel REES - shared note

Witnesses to marriage: William David and Thomas Rees "65" in 1851 census (31/3.1851) Widow aged "77" in 1861 census living with Esther & John Jenkins Death ref Narberth 11a 493 Age at death (Jan 1869) given as 85 ie born 1783. Death Certificate Widow of John Barrett Farm Labourer Cause of Death "Old Age" no medical attendant Reported by John Morgans of Trevaughan. (His Mark) George Davies, Registrar Pearl Harries pointed me to Rachel Rees' family. Her sibs (known from her father's will) were all baptised at the same chapel. She was apparently also baptised on the same day at Henllan Independent, Henllan Amgoed, Carmarthen. I take her year of birth to be the year she was baptised in, this fits with the age given in the 1861 census which is probably more reliable that the age given to the registrar after her death.
