Thank you for looking GC
A Family Tree deposited at Pembroke Record Office gave her name as Jennet but no surname.
Will keep an open mind

Morris Gibby died 5 Feb 1777 and left a will which mentions his wife Jennet, and five children William, Thomas, Richard, Ann and Margaret married name James.

Burial of Jennet in Wiston 12 Dec 1786 which would make her 90 if she was born in 1696, not impossible, but unlikely.
Wiston parish records for the period of possible baptisms of the children do not appear to be online, they are at NLW.
Records for Llangunnor as listed here, but not apparently online for that period.

I have an ancestor in Carmarthenshire (died 1702 iirc) whose name in the parish records is consistently given as "Johannula". It took me years to finally find out her name was Jennet, from her brother's will. ::)
