Post by: ambers on Friday 20 June 08 02:17 BST (UK)
Hi, I would appreciate some help :)

I am looking for the marriage of Evan Evans and Catherine,  first child born 1836/7.
They were living in Neath Abbey, Parish: Cadoxton, Hamlet: Duffryn, Clydach in the 1841

Hi Ambers, this is the only with 'Catherine' that would fit in time scale, so looks very possible...

Evan Evans - Catherine Harris mar 7 Sept 1835 at Cadoxton Neath states both of parish (WPB)

Hi Cas ;D

Many thanks for your help.

At last I have a different surname in the family, all my Evans's marry a Davies and then the Davies's in turn marry an Evans ...confusing is not the word ::)

Hi Ambers....additional info requested via PM.

I have some Neath marriages post 1837, but it is a bit hit and miss (think it is the parish church only)
