Hi Clive
Thank you very much indeed for all the information you have found, I am as sure as I can
be that this is the right family, the name Maurice has come down the family line.
I will try Capel Llanrug for a marriage, they seemed to move around quite a bit so nothing
would surprise me, although I think the family settled in Forden,
I am very grateful for your help ~ thank you.
Kind regards
Shirley

Hi Shirley
I don't know whether you know about these baptisms:
Sarah Griffiths
- christening: 5th December 1815
- father: Maurice Griffiths; mother: Mary
ettws Cedewen, Montgomery, Wales
Anne Griffiths
- christening: 12th January 1817
- father: Morris Griffiths; mother: Mary
ettws Cedewen, Montgomery, Wales
Perhaps 'Catharine Maurice' was actually 'Catharine Maurice Griffiths'?
Here's another birth which may be a different couple with exactly the same
ames:
Ellinor Griffiths
- birth: 5th March 1833; christening: 14th March 1833
- father: Maurice Griffiths; mother: Mary Evans
apel Llanrug Calvanistic Methodist, Llanrug, Caernarvon, Wales
If the above is the right couple, and the family home was at Llanrug 22
ears after Catharine was born, then perhaps this is where she was married?
Best regards

ubject: [POWYS] POWYS ~ Christian name given as Surname???
Hello Listers
I wonder if anyone has come across a baptism record such as below where
the
child has the surname of the father's Christian name. I have looked for
the marriage to David Hughes but it was not on the Family Search site
and I
can't think of another way to cross check it i.e. to early for census.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
_Catharine Maurice_
