Hello
I'm looking for information on Sarah Ridley and possibly her husband Henry. I know she lived at Water street in the 1851 census, but I believe she arrived in Llanelly sometime before 1841. She would have had 3 if not 4 children then. I'm not sure when or where her husband died but he was not on the 1851 census.
Any help would be really appreciated
Kind regards
Chris

Thank you so much Rosie
Yes that is my Sarah, and it fills another piece of the jig saw. Unfortunately no mention of her husband Henry although he must have been with her in at least 1845? because her last child was born in 1846. Bit of a stumbling block now.
Once again thanks very much for your amazingly quick help

Thank you very much Welsh Lady.
I had already come across that entry and have also found a burial in Llanelli Parish Church for a Anthony Ridley, also of Prospect place. He died on 28-3-1846 aged 3 weeks so he could easily be from my family. As I can't seem to find any information on Henry's death I'm at a bit of a loss as to where to take this now.
Kind Regards
Chris

Thanks again Welsh Lady
It's great to get conformation like this, as well as new information.
Sarah's maiden name was Dawson and she was born in Ovington, NBL in 1811. She married Henry on the 16th June 1832 in Ovingham, NBL. I believe Henry might have been born in Ovingham and christened on 9th December 1811, although this is a Little tenuous. I do know that they had 2 children who were christened in Hylton DUR - John Walter 27/07/1834 and Robert 26/02/1836. And as their daughter Sarah was born in Llanelli in 1838 they must have moved down between these years. I know that Sarah spent the rest of her life in Llanelli as did some of her children. But Henry remains a mystery.
Also you mention Margaret Howe Ridley (1865) - Mother Sarah Ann Ridley... this is interesting as Sarah Ann married either a James Howell or a Thomas Price in 1870 maybe there is a connection between the Howe part of her name and James Howell....Who Knows??
I really do appreciate this research your doing for me, it's extremely helpful and enlightening.
Kind regards
Chris
