Thanks Geoff.

The formatting problem looks to be random.

Can't find the family in 1881. Births for 4x Jane Harris in RD Swansea 1840 +/- 1. Webb, Rees, Davis and Jenkins.

Thanks Geoff.

Possible 4x Jane Harris in Glamorgan in 1841.

David [THOMAS] opted for a career in industry rather than in farming, and became famous in America for his formula of producing steel from anthracite coal.

The John Harris (b. 1844 Skewen) in my tree went to America with a letter from Jane Bowen to get introduced to David Thomas in Pennsylvania.

David Thomas junior born 1794 to David Thomas senior & Jane Williams.

David Thomas junior was Jane Bowen's (nee Harris b. abt 1840) uncle.

David Thomas junior married Elizabeth Hopkins.

Don't know how 'uncle' fits with 4x Jane Harris mmn being Webb, Res, Davies and Jenkins.
