I was wondering if it was Llanyblodwel.

I notice his father is simply "deceased" on the marriage, not a "collier" (that is Elizabeth's father's occupation).

That sounds a better bet, my Montgomeryshire geography leaves a lot to be desired outside of Carno

You might have some help on this if it's put on the Shropshire page.Llanyblodwel in 1881 is given as Llanyblodwel Shropshire.Gadget help please?

Llanyblodwel is a place right on the Border between Shropshire and Wales.Often these fluctuate in Census entries between England and Wales.As I also stated I'm hopeful that my friend Gadget sees this as she is very helpful with these border areas.
