Hi Judith
Thanks for the reply,
I see the listings you speak of, as I am not yet sure that Mary's maiden
name was Jones I have been reluctant to order any certificates but may have
to take the plunge and try one soon.
I am having difficulty finding sites that have Welsh records, could you give
the URL for the Amlwch data site you mentioned do you know of any similar
sites for Caernarvon.
Regards
David

Hello David,
on Free BMD there are 2 possible marriages c- 1837 to Mary Jones at
Caernarvon and 1838 at Bangor to Mary Jones.
Possibly neither are right as Mary was born at Amlwch, but you never know! I
can't see them on the Amlwch data site (marriages 1813-1837), which may
suggest that she didn't marry there.
Best wishes, Judith
