I've now got the marriage certificate back and Jane's father is listed as being John Davies, labourer.
Now if Oriel's first suggestion of the John Davies being a warrant officer in the navy is to be considered I would doubt he list his occupation as labourer? Having said that however Jane's husband Thomas WAS a mariner, as was his father William so you could imagine they were keeping things in the family so to speak.
Based on the listing of John Davies being a labourer however makes me lean to him being Mary Griffiths' husband although Jane does name her third of four daughters Martha (although her husband Thomas has a sister Martha who signed the marriage licence as a witness).
I reckon it's probably John Davies / Mary Griffiths are her parents what do you all think?
