Parents: Mother Sarah and father Thomas Bevan. Mothers maiden name could be Pritchard.
Any suggestions would be great!

my grandmother was Emily Bevan born in Pengam Bedwellty in 1872, her father was David Bevan born mynyddislwyn 1840, but I don't thonk there is a connection.

Thanks for the suggestions, just wondering if you knew what the parents names are?
I am looking for Sarah Pritchard as the mother and Thomas Bevan as the father.

Managed to obtain the birth cert for the Mary Bevan (suggested above)...Vol 11a. Page 60 and it transpires that the mothers name is:
Sarah Whitington and father William Bevan, so unfortunately not that one. I have other possibilities but this is starting to get costly! I was wondering if anyone was visiting the records office for Abergavenny Records and could look up one other possible birth for Mary Bevan:
Mary Ann Bevan...Vol. 11a. Page No. not avail.
Parents: Thomas Bevan & Sarah ? (Could be Pritchard) the other possibles I have are not Abergavenny and at that time the birth would have been registered at Abergavenny.
Many thanks

Members of the public do not have access to the registers. You could ask the registrars to check on the understanding that you will buy the cert if they can find it
