Thank you Trish and Osprey.  I've spent quite a while analysing all the information in this thread and I believe you have given me the most likely parents for Sarah with John & Catherine Foulkes.  I'll briefly look to see if I can find anymore siblings but then I'll start researching Sarah's husband John Edwards.

Many, many thanks again!     :) :)

Trish, it was a remarkable coincidence that 2 Harriet Foulkes married on the same day and both to Roberts!

Good morning

Yes, I did find the possible marriage for John Foulkes (widower) to Catharine Williams in 1809 but the name of the maiden name of the mother of the baptism of Sarah Foulkes on 26 Nov 1815 in Minera, Denbighshire was Catharine Jones.

By the Rev Edward Whitley, Sarah daughter of John Foulkes of Nantyffrith, Miner, and Catherine his wife, formerly Catherine Jones.

So these can't be the same couple?

But I do agree that the couple you mention in the 1851 census seem right.

Where do I go from here?

Thought I'd found the couple you mention below in the 1851 census but can't now.
Can you explain how you searched and found them please?

I just searched on Anc.
Just entered surname Foulkes, living in Hope, Flintshire.
John/Catherine popped up in 1851 Census.

I subscribe to Findmypast and the searching method does not enable me to search the 1851 census independently (or I've not worked this out). I used to use Ancestry and did find it easier to use.  I cannot find John/Catherine Foulkes in the 1851 census in Hope, Flintshire no matter what data I input.   Can you help further.

I have no access to FindMyPast so all I can give you is the info I posted from Anc.
