I'm struggling to find the family in 1881, together or individually.
It doesn't help when we don't know where William and Mary Ann were from.

It's a shame it's a Civil marriage so you would need the certificate for fathers details.

Did they stay in Patagonia?

There's a newspaper report from 1902 of a William Edwards Evans from Abergele emigrating from Patagonia to Canada, along with 4 sons and 4 daughters (and wife presumably, as it mentions a family of 10). However, unlike some in the list who moved at the same time, he's not highlighted as one of the Vesta passengers

Thank you Mabel
My Edward Davies was 7 when he went to Patagonia in 1886
But I am aware that’s lots of Evens went to Patagonia from Abergele through my research looking for Margaret Davies now found
There was a newspaper cutting where some Evens came back to Abergele on there journey to pastures new Australia I believe from memory
