I'm looking for confirmation that a transcribed record is correct, if anyone can access the original image or record please. It's 8 Mar 1818 baptism of Mary Ann Jones, parents James and Rachel at Hubberston. I think the church there is St. David's. Many thanks for any help given.

Hi
The baptism was on the date you specify. There was no middle name 'Ann' in the register.
Father's occupation was a sailor.
The baptism took place at Hubberston, James and Rachel's abode was (looks like Leddeston ) possibly Liddeston, Pembrokeshire.

Thank you very much Claire, that's a huge help!
I'm fairly sure I'm on the right track now.
If it's not too much trouble, can you possibly find siblings or a marriage record for James/Rachel?
No worries, if not, really grateful for the info.
Cheers

Hi
There is a marriage in Henry's Moat in 1803.
Both were of the parish and were married 21 June 1803
James Jones and Rachel Thomas.
He signed, she left her mark
Witnesses: John Jinkin & William Griffith

There are a couple of children born & buried in Steynton
Thomas Jones buried 5 November 1813 aged 2 son of James & Rachel and the same day and year Benjamin aged 3 weeks. Abode: Dreenhill
I can't see a baptism for Thomas, but there is one for Benjamin.
He was born on the 11th October 1813, baptised 2nd November at an Independent Chapel at Haverfordwest.
Abode: Dreenhill in the parish of Steynton
And finally ten days after the baptism of Mary on the 18th March the couple baptised a son Thomas. All details ( abode & occupation) the same.
