Christening    27 NOV 1872     Saint Mary, Swansea, Glamorgan, Wales

Hi Osprey/Mary, got called away..good finds.

1851 - H0107/1864/338/8
Salcombe Regis, Devon

Head by John Taylor & large family

William Gould 24, Visitor, farm lab, Northmolton, Devon

Same page next house up is Jane Gould age 26, born Credition Devon, Cook to John Farrell (county judge) & Family.

Possible marriage - Sept Q 1852 William Gould - Jane Gould Swansea 11a 619

Spec I know, but interesting.  Could be proved/disproved via certs perhaps kissing cousins, their unrelated or red herring!

Also pob  ??? for Eliza Gould (second wife of Will in 1881)

possible - 1891 RG12/4404/48/19 Cardiff Union Workhouse

Elisabeth Gould, wid, 65, pauper inmate, Shepton Somerset.

Well, that makes sense of the 1881 pob for Elizabeth. There's a Croscombe 2 miles from Shepton Mallet, but doesn't help with Oare as that is between Porlock and Lynton.  :-\

Getting one of the birth certs would help with the maiden name
Joseph Richard Gould sept qtr 1860 Swansea vol 11a pg 503
Elizabeth Gould sept qtr 1853 Swansea vol 11a pg 399
 
Think that marriage for William & Jane looks a likely prospect.

Checked the IGI Hugh Wallis site for North Molton.  The are many Gould and varient.  Also Bowden/Bawden.  Would keep 'Bawden' in mind when searching census for this family.

There is a poss for William in 1851 parents Henry/Elizabeth Bawden. but you need to confirm with certs to know you are tracking the right family.

Let us know how you get on...
