The census information looks right, as far as family.The mention of Taylor, PA, fits with other tidbits I know.
As for the immigration information, the dates don't check out as far as William's age.Based on family stories from my grandmother, I know that 1865 is a date that had stuck in her head, but some things about the story don't fit real history.(I do know that her Davies ancestors came to the US/PA in 1870, which ruled them out for the 1865 date mentioned.)I also had thought they had set sail from Wales . . . but I could be wrong on that.
Thanks for the information.Anything else you may come across will be appreciated.
