Wales / Thomas Collins - Chirk parish

« on: Monday 29 September 08 06:44 BST (UK) »

Hi everybody,
I'm look for my gggg grand father Thomas Collins. He was married to a Mary Parish in Chirk Wales on the 27th of March in 1815 at St Mary's and they had all 8 children in the area of Chirk. Now I can not find his birth any where. I have not seen the original marriage entry because I live in Australia. Too see if there is a fathers name on there.
He died in 1835 in Pen Y Bryn, he was a Coal Miner and he as far as I know was born in 1795 and I thought it was Chirk but all my research has come up with nothing.
Can any one help please. May be sight the original if they live in the area.
Thank you so much

His father on the marriage certificate is John Scrivener? last name not that clear. Mother unknown.
Any help would be greatly apprecatied.
