Hughes's Gwernaffield. (Again)

[par50]

Hi I was wondering if any-one could check a Marriage in 1854 at Gwernaffield between a Griffith Hughes and an Ann Hughes. I have found Griffith on the 1851 census with a wife Elizabeth. and 3 children Mary 1839. Jane 1846. and Ellis 1850. It has Griffith as born in Cilcen. 1814. But then I cheked Ellis on the 1861 census and his is in Pantymwyn with a Widow Anne Hughes. Could Griffiths 1st wife have died and he married Ann??? this is what I am trying to work out. If I knew the Parents of Ann it would be a great help. also unable to find a death for Griffith.  Pam J.
