I have been helping a friend with their family tree and am trying to establish the following:-
I think a Richard Griffiths b. 1789 married a Jane Hughes at or near Llanymynech about 1810 ish. I think their first child was Evan who was bap there in 1811. Jane Hughes was not born in Shropshire.
I think Richard born 1789 was the son of John Griffiths and Anne. Anne being born about 1761 and their first child born in 1779 (Anne).
As there are no IGI records on the LDS for marriages at Llanymynech I wondered if any one has access to the parish records for the area.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi
I'm doing a search right now :)
I've so far found this burial in the Llanymynech records

There doesn't seem to be a marriage for them in Llanymynech that I can see :(
If Jane was not born in Shropshire, it is most likely that she would have been from one of the neighbouring parishes in Denbighshire or Montgomeryshire - but which :-\
I do have many of the records for these parishes but it could take a lot of searching. I'll see what I can find.

Sorry for reviving a (very!) old thread, but I am currently researching John and Anne Griffiths. Did you and your friend get anywhere with this?
Many thanks
