Welshpool: marriage and birth of Mary Edwards
« on: Wednesday 16 September 09 12:05 UTC (UK) »

Could someone with access to Welshpool parish registers please try to find the following for me?

First, the marriage of Richard Rider and Mary Edwards, which I believe took place on 16 Aug 1814. Any info from the marriage entry, particularly regarding Mary's father, would be very helpful.

Then, if the marriage entry does give any clues regarding Mary's father, would it be possible to find her baptism entry at Welshpool around 1794 and see what information that gives regarding her parents? The estimated birth year is derived from the 1851 census on which Mary is shown as age 57 (living with husband Richard, also 57, in Welshpool).

Many thanks,

Steve

I may have more questions about this family later if you are able to help gadget, but have to dash now to visit mum in hospital. I'll mark this up as completed for now.

Cheers,

Steve
