Ok I have found them on the 1861 census too. So John Jones b. 1842 is a grandson so that solves that issue. How did you get Ebenezer from Ghangred Jones?? I would not have looked at this census because of that name.
Now back to John JONES and Sarah nee REES. (1861 census) On the birth of their children Sarah and David it states Sarah Jones formerly REES of Blackpill Lane. I have been told they were market gardeners there.
Maybe you are right and Sarah Rees married prior. Now this David I talk about is my great grandfather, like I said his death cert in NZ has his mother maiden name as REES. I have since found his marriage cert here in Australia and it says his mothers maiden name is MILLS.
David Jones is still on the 1881 census with his uncle Ebenezer and David came to Australia and married in 1895 not sure when he came out or what boat etc. He then went to NZ with his family and died there.
