Martha Griffith and Thomas Roberts
« on: Sunday 01 November 15 00:47 GMT (UK) »
Soooo sorry to get into this Roberts tangle again.  I am looking for a marriage between Martha Griffith(s) of Corwen, born about 1814 to Thomas Roberts, born also about 1814.  They may have married in Llangollen.  I believe they married about 1835.  Their son, John Roberts, born in Llangollen in 1844 was my 2x gt grandfather.  There was a daughter, Mary, born about 1836. Other sons were Edwin, born 1851 and David, born 1839.  I do have them in the 1841 Welsh Census, but lose them after that.  By 1871, Martha was a widow in Acrefair.

The Clergy Database

http://db.theclergydatabase.org.uk/jsp/search/index.jsp

I searched for Surname"hughes", Diocese "St Asaph", Location "Corwen", date range 1820-1840  - which returned "Morgan Hughes"

Genuki Corwen   www.genuki.org.uk/big/wal/MER/Corwen

Mentions "Morgan Hughes and Corwen Parish Church" - (St Mael and St Sulien?)
