Good news to report. The marriage certificate for Rachel Davies to John Jones has confirmed that she is “my” Rachel Davies. They married 25/05/1897. Her father was Joseph Davies, Collier, Deceased (all match). She was living at Betty’s House, Mardy. John Jones was living at North Furnace, Mardy, father was William Jones, Colliery Overman.

Thanks again to everyone for their help, via which I have been able to find out the fate of 4 of the 7 sisters. The other 3 could still be out there in census records somewhere but equally may have died young.
