Hi List
I need some advice. I have traced a branch of the RICHARDS family of Tredegar back to
1861 when Daniel (born Trevethin abt 1829) was living in Union Street with wife Mary (born
Rhayader abt 1833) and their three children, the eldest (John) having been born in
Tredegar in 1854. On John's birth certificate and that of his siblings, the
mother's name is given as Mary Richards, formerly OWENS, which I take to mean that she
was married. Hence I looked for the marriage of Daniel RICHARDS and Mary OWENS in
Monmouthshire in the BMD index back from 1856 but without success. Subsequently, I
checked marriages for both Daniel Richards and Mary Owens (and of Richard, and of Owen)
anywhere in England and Wales from 1848 to 1870 but I could not find the elusive record.
Where do I go from here? Any suggestions gratefully received.
Clive
