Marriage Look-up please DAVIES/REX (RIX) COMPLETED
« on: Sunday 25 May 08 02:27 BST (UK) »
Is there anyone out there maybe with access to Ancestry who can help me find a marriage for a George Davies, a shoemaker, born 1814 in Orcop, and an Ann Rex (Rix) born 1828 in Pencoyd (nr Weston-under-Penyard) about 1846
Ann's father was a John Rex, innkeeper, deceased 1841

I have searched in vain so far and I think it unlikely Ann would have been married before
On the 1851 census George and Ann are living in Woolhope with 2 children, Frances age 3 and Jane age 1

Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
SC

Hi Wozzle

Thanks so much for finding the marriage entry, didn't think Ann had another name or I might have found it
In all the other records and censuses I have she is just listed as Ann
Finally my puzzle is solved - I had her pretty well pieced together, she married twice, second marriage was to a William Davies - no relation! and was looking after an elderly aunt who was a Rex so I knew I was on the right track

Many thanks, I shall now order the certificate
