Dear List,
Is there a marriage index for the county of Breconshire covering the 1830's? I am
trying to find out if the marriage of John Evans and his wife Mary, both from
Carmarthenshire, took place before or after leaving their home county. Their first
children, John and Margaret, were born in about 1836 in the village of Bwlch although they
soon moved to Beaufort in Llangattock. It is possible that they were married in
Llanfihangel Cwm Du or even in Cathedine, both churches in use by residents of Bwlch
village. Curiously, I have been unable to find any baptism record of John and Margaret,
John and Mary Evans' first children. I have searched everywhere for them but they are
not to be found. Any scraps of information about this family, particularly those which
record the family in Bwlch, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Best wishes
James
