Richard & Florence are remembered in the church of Pembroke St Mary.

1851 -

Joseph H Edwards   53
Esther Edwards   54 b. Huntingdon, Huntingdonshire
Jane M Edwards   24
Robert Edwards   22
Lucy C Edwards   18
Rebecca A Edwards   21
Sarah Edwards   14
Charles Edwards   13
John A E Edwards   11
Hannah Hopkins   25

As Esther was born in Huntingdon and that Jane M Edwards was b. abt 1827 then the marriage in 1825 looks a sure bet. However to be certain it would be advisable to purchase a birth certificate of a child born after 1837.

1851 -

Joseph H Edwards   53
Esther Edwards   54 b. Huntingdon, Huntingdonshire
Lucy C Edwards   18

1851 and others already held and noted they lived in Solihull.

Lucy C. Edwards is in fact Lucy Dorothy Edwards, later wife of George Newton Swinson MRCS.

Decline the idea of certificate purchase, brought loads at £2-40 each back in the 1970's, don't need more for this project.

Thanks for the mrge, rounds off this item in the book nicely.
