Richards Marriage
« on: Saturday 29 March 08 09:39 GMT (UK) »
I wonder if anyone could help me.  I'm trying to track down the marriage of William Richards b 1840 in Nantyglo and his wife Sarah b 1842 in Carmarthenshire (?Sarno Lodge) 

I have what I think may be the right marriage in Carmarthen in the 4th qtr 1865 Ref  11a/1190.   Unfortunately the BMD only gives 3 names on that page and although one is William Richards there is no Sarah there!

Does anyone know where I could get the information please?

Thanks

Do you have a birth certificate for one of their children? If so, go to the full GRO index, select dec qtr 1865 and Sarah plus surname and look for an entry with the same reference.
If you don't have a birth cert, either get one to find out Sarah's maiden name or take a gamble on the marriage cert.

Hi

I have the name Sarah Jones (in Wales!!) from another contact - he seems pretty sure about this so I may just go ahead and order the marriage certificate.  I got sidetracked with another part of the family!!

Thanks for you interest - if you have access to any marriage information that would be great!!

Well, a little progress then!  :D

I'm sorry I don't personally have access but a few RootsChatters do or else they visit the Record Office - fingers crossed for you!

Kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

Edit: a child's birth cert would confirm Sarah's maiden name ...

William Richards married Sarah Jones in the Bethlehem Chapel, Llanelly nr Crickhowell on 27 August 1864. William was born at Nantyglo and Sarah at Sarnau Lodge, Camarthenshire (Sarnau Mansion in which the Lodge is located is a B & B with a website.)

William and Sarah moved to Teeside. I have a photo taken in a steelworks with William, his son Thomas and his daughters, (Sarah Richard) husband Joseph Barrass.

I am related to all these people and knew the Barrass family personally. Are you related to this family?
