I think John YOUNG's baptism in Mitchel Troy in 1846 must be the relative I'm looking for and his brother, Alfred, was baptised Close by in Monmouth the following year.

Thank you to everyone who has looked at this query!

1841 Census taken 6 June 1841 -

There is a little 'squiggle' above the 2 on John YOUNG's age - so could be '2 m'

Also on Mitcheltroy - Burials

Mary Ann YOUNG - 15 October 1845 - age 8 - Coleford, Glos

Family connection with Michel Troy?

1851 census, Francis YOUNG - born - transcribed as Cumiarvon - could this be Cwmcarfan/Cwmcarvan - which, according to Genuki, is 2.0 miles from Mitchel Troy (zooming on the census return, it looks like CWMCARVON)

Mitchel Troy baptism 15 October 1820 - Francis - s of Margaret YOUNG - other siblings of Francis & Margaret YOUNG, also on Mitchel Troy Baptisms (on the 'net')

Francis & Margaret YOUNG (on the net - one website: Francis YOUNG m Margaret MEREDITH - 27 May 1795)

Please could you help me find the correct birth or baptism date for John William YOUNG.
On various census records his place of birth is shown as Coleford, Gloucestershire and his year of birth is around 1841, however, I can't find his record on this site.

Father: Francis YOUNG (Born Cumiarvon, Monmouthshire) a carpenter
Mother: Mary Howells YOUNG nee MEREDITH (Born Goodrich, Herefordshire 26 Jul 1812)
Married: 9 May 1836 in Goodrich, Herefordshire

Can anyone suggest where to look?

Thank you
