Hello
I’m trying find more information into William Williams son of Arthur William’s and Elizabeth Faulkes baptism on 3 April 1795 Guilsfield
I can’t find a marriage for a Arthur or Elizabeth or any siblings to William William’s
I believe Arthur William’s was from Alberbury and Elizabeth Faulkes Guilsfield

Hi
Have you looked at the original parish record?
It looks to me that the couple weren't married.
All the others say George Jones and wife Anne etc but not that one.
Arthur Williams seems to be baptised 20.2.1774 at Alberbury s of John and Mary Williams.
It looks like Elizabeth may have died young.
Elizabeth Foulkes age 23 buried Guilsfield 29 April 1797 of Tirymunech.
Does that help?
