I was going to attach a clip from George Edwards' baptism from 1826, in the hope that someone with local knowledge could work out the abode, but I can't add an attachment :'(

Sorry I haven't been here to comment on this.As has been stated the reason that Overton is wrongly given as being in Cheshire is that one time it was indeed in the Diocese of Chester as opposed to St Asaph.Both for geographic and political purposes,Overton was never in Cheshire.I will be very interested indeed when you get to discussing possible siblings for Joseph's father.

You should be able to add , just click on Attachments and other options , then browse your files,
Could it be the image file size is too large. The maximum individual size 500KB

Found what appears to be John and Sarah's marriage but nothing else at the moment :( though one of the witnesses was a Richard Edwards. If the marriage is right, John was from the parish of Llangollen. 

No real idea of their age.... just been working through the children to see if I can find John or Sarah with either of them in later years.

No it's really small, I'm not given an option to attach a file at all. Could it be because it's in the lookups folder?

Under 'Attachments and other options' I get ...
notify me of replies by email (which is ticked)
don't use smileys
return to this topic (ticked).

It is strange as I've certainly been able to add attachments to other posts  ???
