Finding a parent after 1806 in Welsh records

[Raquel.bear]

Hi I am trying to find the parents of David Reynolds. Born 1806. Baptisum Henllan, Carmarthenshire, Wales. I have records of David children, wife (Sarah Davies). Any ideas how I can go back further? The baptisum records doesn't have the parents listed.

Hi there

Do you know what year he married? 

The marriage certificate should name his father and his occupation to start with.  Witness names can also be helpful.

They married 17 April 1832 , St Clears so no parents names.

As the OP says,  father's name given as Reynolds, no first name, Llangan parish (FreeReg)

Add - no other baptisms that might be sibs found so far.

My line went down - having DNS problems.

I've managed to get the original records up for the later children but none of them give parents' names

Found banns for Walter and Rachel. I think the witnesses might have been church elders. A Daniel Davies was one - the same as one of the witnesses for David.

The only marriage that I can find circa 1800 +/- is

St Ishmael 7 Nov 1794 Thomas Reynold to Margaret Thomas

Add - Thomas given as a labourer and Margaret was a widow
