Collier = Coal Miner

Powell Duffryn is/was a (large) company involved in mineral extraction and supply, I have a suspicion that the Powell family were from the Llanharan area.

There is a Message board dealing with Welsh Coal mining

The census data is subject to the 100 year confidentiality rule - so we have to wait til 2011 for the 1911 data etc.
