I suspect that this might be the marriage that you are looking for:

1846
HARRIS William & JONES Elizabeth Tywyn, St Cadfan Gwynedd - Dolgellau C23/01/E171

What this record says is that the Marriage took place in St Cadfan's the Parish Church at Tywyn in 1846, and that the record is kept by the Registrar at Dolgellau under the reference number C23/01/E171.

Dylan N Jones, the registrar at Dolgellau, is often willing to send details of what is on the registers in his possession without having to go through the hassle of ordering full copy certificates.

E mail him, quoting the ref no., on:

dylannjones@gwynedd.gov.uk

Which census returns did you want, just 1851 or others too?

Thank you for replying back so soon, i will email Dylan and ask for the info.

If you have access to 1841 & 1851 that would be fantastic.

Look forward to hearing from you
