My Davies family - father Joseph b. abt. 1806 in Tredegar, mother Ann b. abt 1803, and their children lived in Bedwellty for several of the censuses. However, two of their children were born in France - around 1829, 1830.
In looking at the census, it seems there are quite a few people from Monmouthshire who were born in France in the early 1830's.
Does anyone know what would have taken Welsh families to France around that time?
Thanks for any input -
