Hi Carol
I found the marriage which I believe is them
Llanllwch parish church 6th Sept 1835
David Richards and Jane Jones
Carmarthen was separated into three parishes, namely St Peters, St Davids
and Llanllwch......
I found the burial of Cornelius in St Davids parish church
1858 16th November St Davids Carmarthen
Cornelius Richards, Friars Court, aged 10 years
I cannot find a baptism for Mary in 1838 St Peters, I am currently indexing
St Peters baptisms and have gone to 1840 so far.......I did look in
Llangunnor and Llanllwch but they were not baptised there....
The marriage entry for David and Jane did not state he was a
widower........perhaps its worth asking CRO if the original does, but if it
would have given it I would have added that information to the index......
Hope this bit of information helps
Pauline

Hi Pauline ,
Sorry for delay in replying .......kids been on the Pc all weekend !!
Im afraid I dont have any idea if they were Church goers but most of the
people ive researched seem to have been Baptised in a Church .
In 1841 and 1851 they were living at Pensarn Village , Llangunnor ,
birthplace in 1851 is given as Carmarthen St Peters . In 1861 they are at
Dame St ,
Carmarthen and their birthplace is just given as Carmarthen . They had a
son
Cornelius who i think died in 1858 aged 10 but have no idea if this was
in
Llangunnor or St Peters .
David Richards was knocking on 50ish when his daughter Mary was born c
1837
and even older when sons James and Cornelius were born , so I have a
feeling
that he must have been married before , and therefore might have another
family yet to be discovered . I dont know how to find this though ,
unless Church
records would state his occupation (Stone cutter or Mason) .
Best wishes
Carol
