Regarding the 1875 marriage,does the Ann Griffiths have a maiden name of Price or Powell?

An update.
After visiting the farm this morning I can tell you that it is the one which was known as Cock Farm, later becoming known as Moreton Farm.
I was told reason for the change of name was simply that the occupier was a strict chapel man and was offended by being known  as "Jones the Cock" so he called it Moreton Farm.

 This means that after two visits to the museum to look at the tithe maps I still have to go back again.  ::)
