Also not many Parish Registers carry the name of the parish church at the
top of the Register. The Register wasn't written with Family historians in
mind after all. ;-))

Thanks for both replies. I forgot stupidly that a particular parish - by
definition - will usually have one main parish church, although I suppose
this can be complicated sometimes by chapels of ease etc. I will check
further the records suggested.
Many thanks

Hello
I too am a recent occasional user of Findmypast - having only ever used
Ancestry -
as I was led to believe they had better pre-1837 parish records.
And indeed I found a transcript and facsimile of an 1818 marriage, possibly
between my Richard Jones and Anne James.
However, could someone please help me with this as what I have is a
scan
from what appears to be a bound record book (three marriages per page) but
with no indication to which town or church it refers, just "Parish of
Cadoxton juxta Neath" and marriage in "this church", vicar W Williams.
Sorry if this is a bit cross-border into GLAM but this family did promptly
move into Brecs.
I asked Findmypast for clarification but no reply (unsurprisingly, it
seems). They
also don't seem to have scanned the title pages of this volume
which may have yielded more detailed information.
Thanks for any help in finding out what this actually is.
Gareth Jones
