THE CENSUS FOR MELIN Y COED AND ENVIRONS IN 1901 by Ken Davies
1901 saw the end of the Victorian era, as Queen Victoria died on
the Isle of Wight on 22nd January. Liberal MP David Lloyd George was forced to
flee from a pro-Boer meeting as riots broke out and the Boer War continued.
Robert Gascoyne-Cecil (Conservative) was Prime Minister. Italian Marconi
transmitted a Morse code signal across the Atlantic Ocean for the first time.
Tottenham Hotspur, then a non-league club, won the F.A. Cup.
With the dawning of the Edwardian era, let’s follow in the
footsteps of one of the many census enumerators, Owen Hughes of Mill Bank,
Melin Y Coed, as he records details of his friends and neighbouring families
living in the Melin Y Coed area over a century ago.

THE 1891 CENSUS FOR MELIN Y COED AND ENVIRONS
Transcribed by Ken Davies
In 1891, a new Elementary Education Bill made free education
available for all families in England and Wales. The Times newspaper made a
devastating attack on the Prince of Wales, condemning him for mixing in
doubtful society and indulging in “questionable pleasures”, thereby putting at
risk the “monarchial principle”. Thomas Hardy’s novel Tess of the D’Urbervilles
was published, and The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
was published in The Strand Magazine. Nearly one third of the population now
lived in towns of more than 100,000 inhabitants, compared with just one in
eight in France.
Meanwhile in Melin Y Coed, enumerator Owen Hughes was preparing
for his written entries in the 1891 census. This census is fortunately more
specific with places of birth.

(Population in the past ten years had increased by 3.4 million).

In 1841 Queen Victoria had been married to Prince Albert for 12

On the 8th of June 1841, census enumerator Hugh Hughes knocked
on the door of Elias Williams and his family – the first from the village of
Melin Coed in the township of Tybrith Isaf to be recorded on the 1841 Census.
The map survey of 1800 published in 1839-40 called the village
Pentre y Coed.
This first census supplied just basic information. It recorded
every person living at that address on that night. The village had a total of
ten households. No house names were noted. Adults ages tended to be rounded to
the nearest 5 years, eg 48 would be 50.
