Thank you for sending this, you have the right family. I am beginning to think that Richard was not born in Trevethin as I thought as it seems there was a Richard Elton born in Littledean with parents William Elton and Ann Flaxley as someone has kindly sent me this information along with 8 siblings. I just have to find a way of proving that this is right. He was living in Trevethin and working as an Iron Miner but could easily have been born in Littledean.
