Try using the marriage section of Ancestry.com This allows you to put both partners names in and your taid's date of birth. It will probably give you a large list and then you will have to try and narrow it down a bit.
I have the complete census for 1840 for Caernarvonshire which I can look through but it will take a while as these are scanned images of the actual census. If your relatives lived on Anglesey in 1840 then I will be wasting my time looking. Have you tried starting with your own parents when they were children which gives you your grandparents. (you need their dates of birth to narrow the search down). If you know where they are buried then you could visit the graveyard (not everyones cup of tea) but it's just another idea for you.
