Title: Lookup request St. Sannan's Cemetery burial, Bedwellty
Post by: jennytefft on Saturday 16 July 16 17:55 BST (UK)

I know that William Williams and Hannah Jones were married in this parish church in May of 1839.  She was about 17 or 18 and he was about 5 years older.  The record says she was a minor.  They did not die here, but the people I am wondering about are their parents.  The marriage record says Williams father was Daniel Williams and Hannah's father was Henry Jones.  I am looking for records that say one or both fathers (or any relative, for that matter) might be buried in this cemetery. 

Daniel Williams would have been born 1796 or before, and Henry Jones 1802 or before I'm guessing, just by the age of their kids. 

Thanks so much if you can help.
Jenny

Hi Jenny, On their Marriage Cert' they also both gave their home as Rhymney, St David's Church Rhymney was Built by the Rhymney Iron Company in 1843, there is a Burial for a Daniel Williams in Rhymney on the 21 Apr 1862 aged 76 years previously living at White Row Rhymney, this is a possibility ?
Best wishes Rowley
