Sarah Ann Rees 1858 - 1934

[roycymru]

Hello

Looking for full details of the attached so I can prove her parentage. Think is relates to Sarah Ann Bowen (nee Rees).  Hoping her parents are listed as John Rees and Margaret Evans? If so, others on Ancestry have her marrying William Joshua Bowen 08 Sep 1882 in Blossburg, Tioga, Pennsylvania.

Thank you
