Hey all,

Would anyone be willing to look at the 1901 census of a family on the original image and see if they can tell me what the address says please??

okay so the person I was searching for was Lily May Wilkins age 11 months born 1900, living in Glamorgan, Wales, Head of house is her grandfather Meshach Watkins.

If anyone can decipher the address I would really appreciate it
:-D
