If you would like to share the details of the people you are researching maybe someone here will be able to help you

...and I hope you don't mind me adding that Oswestry is in fact Shropshire

[piffy]

Thank you for that people!
I am wanting to check the parents names of Mary Edwards b march 1849. and, if it Job and Mary, find Mary's surname.
then check the marriage of Job Edwards 1842 and see if they fit. if so checking thier parents names.

I had a quick look in the 1851 census and there is a Martha Edwards age 1, born Oswestry, with parents Richard and Emma, sister Mary.  The family are living at Willow Street, Oswestry.

The only other Martha of approximately the right age and born in Oswestry, is living in Burslem.

Let me know if you would like the full details.

In 1851, Job and Mary are in Bronygarth (Parish of St Martins, Shropshire). Again, this is one of those 'edge' townships on the very border with Llangollen and Chirk parishes.
At this time, Job was a Sawyer, but it is definitely them - he born Llangollen, circa 1813 and Mary, b. Llanymynech. They have their one year old daughter, Mary, with them. This would suggest a marriage between 1848-1850, probaly Oswestry Registration District.
You haven't mentioned the 1842 marriage before. It's possible but iffy
Alternatively, it might be worth trying to find the birth registration of Mary (between April 1849-Mar 1850) or one of the other children. This will give mother's maiden name.
