I need help please, have not done research in the area before, am helping a friend. The above marriage between George Rowlands and Mary Wogan took place 3rd September 1783, St. Mary, Pembrokeshire, according to hints in family tree; can anyone help in finding George's baptism records, his parentage, in fact any info would be helpful. ???

There is also a marriage in 1765 with same witness name, so possibly a parish clerk?
Image states marriage at St Mary but both of the parish of St Michael.

Hopefully.

The good thing about FindMyPast is you can purchase images of some records from them if you don’t have a sub. :)

Pembroke St Michael is in Cosheston, while St Mary’s is actually in Pembroke. It might have been easier to reach, or family tradition.
I have family around the same time that lived in the area of St Michael and used St Mary’s.
