Llandeilo isn;t that far from Llangadog (which I think is the more likely modern spelling - there is a Llangattock over in Breconshire the enumerator maybe getting confused with). However daughter Ann is born Bridgend, rather than Merthyr. They're living in the same sort of area as the 1841 & 1861 candidates
