Caernarvonshire / Re: Mary Brown, born Bangor 1890(ish), daughter of James

A quick mention about births in Bangor. A child may be born in Bangor, but it could be in the maternity hospital which means that child could be living anywhere in the Bangor area (even on Anglesey) and would not necessarily turn up in Bangor in the next census.

Not sure about this, but I'll post it anyway. Friday, 8th August, 1919. Report in the Herald. It's sort of readable but how I found it

I think you will have to order the certificate .. digital is cheaper than a paper copy. The only marriage records in the Caernarvon records office for 1919 are for St. John's 1881-1970.
Maybe there is a newspaper report in Welsh newspapers, probably in the N.W. Chronicle. or Caernarvon & Denbigh although I don't think the latter goes up to 1919 https://newspapers.library.wales/.
If they had children were they still in the area when they were baptised? Same church/chapel?
