Hi Sue,
Dolgellau Archives have an email address and they are very obliging
there.

The details of Simeon's marriage are:
Married June 11th in St Brothen's church, Llanfrothen.
He was of full age,a bachelor, a miner, lived in Ty Coch, father Edward
Edwards, miner.
She was 20 years old, a spinster, in service, lived in Ty'n Llan (which is
the house next to the church, I suspect she was lodging there for the
banns.) father Robert Hughes of Tre'r Gof, Denio, (Pwllheli), labourer.
Rector was Isaac Heathcote Pring.
Simeon signed his name whilst Ellen gave her mark (x).
Witnesses were Henry Owen and Edward Edwards (signed by mark (x).
In curiosity I looked a bit further along the fiche and came across two
baptisms.
1. July 23rd 1843 Ellen, daughter of Simeon and Ellen Edwards, Tanlon,
miner.
2. May 4th 1845 Mary, daughter of Simeon and Ellen Edwards, Ty Canol,
miner.
I'm afraid that the records finish in 1846 so I could not follow them
any further.
Lastly I found Edward and Ellen buried in Capel Ramoth Cemetery,
Llanfrothen.
(Translated from Welsh) In memory of Elin, wife of Edward Edwards, Ty
Coch, who died June 12th 1836 aged 65.
Also Edward her husband, who died April 15th 1849 aged 74.
Regards, Arfor (Criccieth, North Wales)
