Hi Legendsearcher,
The marriage (by banns) was at Llanfair Dyffryn Clwyd. Both Sarah and John were single, and of the parish. Both signed with x as did witnesses Thomas Hughes and Diana Jones.

There's a burial for a Sarah Roberts at Llanfair Dyffryn Clwyd on 2 December 1843. She was 83. Can't read the abode sorry.

There are a number of possible John Roberts burials at Llanfair Dyffryn Clwyd. Any idea when he was born?
If he was around the same age as Sarah (born around 1760), there's a John Roberts born in 1763, who was buried on 7 Feb 1833 (age 70).
Two others both born in 1767, buried in 1815 and 1827.

Thaks Deidre, I have no more info for John Roberts thought the marriage might give me more details. They had a son John Roberts baptism Dec 1789 I wonder if this was at the same place. can you find a buriel for john roberts of ruithin may 1827 aged36years. is llanfair dyffryn Clwyd the place and church name?
Thanks Legendsearcher

Hi Legendsearcher,
The marriage entry only gives the details I listed earlier sorry.
There's a baptism for John Roberts, son of John and Sara, on 26 Dec 1789 at Llanfair DC. And a burial for a John Roberts on 19 May 1827 age 36, of Prior Street, Ruthin, also at Llanfair DC.
Llanfair Dyffryn Clwyd is a small village about 2 miles from Ruthin. FindMyPast just lists the place but I assume from the genuki page below that the church would be St Cynfarch and St Mary.

Hope this helps,

Hi
I thought I had made a posting on this last night but am unsure where it went. I did it about the same time as Deirdre.
Anyway this will no doubt cause some confusion as there is a marriage by Banns on 8 Feb 1785 in Llanarmon-yn-ial between a John Roberts (x) and a Sarah Parry(x). Both of the parish and single. No parents mentioned- witnesses Samuel Parry(x) , Jane Edwards(x) and Evan Edwards. The latter may be connected with the church as he appears quite often a witness.
Where did you obtain your info re Llanarmon?

Hi Deirdre many thanks for the info, it seems to tie in with the other things I've found...the dates I quoted I know are correct because they were in a newspaper article.
Regards Legendsearcher
Hi Peterej
The info mentioning Llanarmon yn Yale I found in an article in the Chester paper (national newspaper archives) April 1870. I was looking for info about my Great grandfather John Thompson Roberts born in Liverpool 1816...we knew there was property in or near Mold and the paper traces his pedigree back to an Evan Davies and Llanarmon. He was awarded a share in property at Plas yn Pant. The paper follows the female side to Llanarmon but I wanted to continue to trace the Roberts side, hoping that they came from around the Ruthin area ( again mentioned in newspaper.. John Roberts of Ruthin died aged 36 in May 1827.
