Subject: [GLA] Marriages 'by license'
I've been trying to trace there parents of my gggg grandmother
Elizabeth Hopkin (nee Davies )on and for about 15 years. I thought her
father may be the Rev William Davies (see Vol 5 issue 95 -- Rev
Thomas Davies / Rev Thomas Hopkin connection) . I found Williams' will
and he did have a daughter Elizabeth (eureka) but unfortunately she
was not my Elizabeth.
My gggg grandfather died in1800 and I believe that Elizabeth remarried
under her maiden name to one Evan Thomas in 1808 by license. I have no
idea what " by license " actually means but the FFHS site suggests
that there may personal details in "the register". Does anyone know
where this register is to be found or what details would be found
there and how do I gain access to this information?. The parish of her
birth would be good. Her age would be great. She was married in
Ystradyfowdwg but there are no baptism or burial records for her in
that parish or any of the surrounding parishes as far as I can see.
Thanks
Roger Hopkins
