You might want to tag this with 'Wales' as Cardiganshire (or Ceredigion) is not in England.

Answer 1

Enoch Davies (with its variant spellings) is a very common name in Wales. For instance there are over 50 people of that name living in Cardiganshire in 1871.

It’s impossible to make any progress just based on the name; we’d need more information on the birth place, birth year, family members, residence, etc.

Answer 2

Enoch Davies is 39, wife Mary is 35, daughter Sarah is 12, sons John is 10 and Samuel is 1.
