Help please have 1915 marriage cert, birth cert and cannot find bride & father

[Treelover]

Hello

Please see my last post, more information - and still cannot find them

I have a marriage in 1915 in the Parish of Talgarth, Brecon of

Henry FEAST aged 21 labourer residing Blaenycwn? Talgarth father Richard FEAST labourer

and

Susan Mary STOKES aged 19 residing Talgarth father Edward Stephen Stokes Ganger

Witnesses were Stephen Stokes and Emma Stokes.

I am having great difficulty locating either of these people or their fathers.

 There are two trees on A***srty that have Henry marrying Susan but don't have Susan's father, and both say Henry's father is RICHMOND FEAST.  Richmond would fit, there are still Feast relatives living in the Hampshire area where Richmond comes from and he is on a census with a Henry that fits.  Could it have been written down wrong?

The only Susan Mary Stokes I can see that fits is born Rugby area, but I cannot find her on 1901 census.

Any help would really be appreciated please.

Thanks
Joan

HI Treelover

I see what you mean- I can't locate either of these families in 1911 or 1901.

Very odd

I will keep looking though

Hi Carol

I'm really going round in circles with them.  I have been trying to check the 1911 myself, but not spending credits as yet.  Just trying to find people that would match first but I'm really struggling.

Really hope I don't fall at the first hurdle with them

Have you got a copy of the original marriage register or a typed or handwritten copy?   If it is the latter I can believe that they may have misread Richmond and put Richard.   I should contact the original local register office and ask them to look at their copy.  They should do that free as you have already got the certificate so can give them full details of when and where.
When did this couple die?   Does their age then match the marriage ages?

In 1911 there is a Harry Feast aged 18 in Newport, Monmouthshire.  He shows up if you put Fareham in the birthplace box.

Hi Andrea

No its not the original.  This is a tree I'm trying to do for a friend.  I wondered about Richard/Richmond because on my tree I have a certificate just like this one where they had  the bride's father's name totally wrong - I mean totally.  I was stuck for over a year, then I made contact with a 3rd cousin who had a copy of the original with the correct name on.  To this day I haven't a clue how they made such a big mistake??

Henry's birth

As its not my tree, all I know about them is they had a son G born in 1923 in Swansea.

If we say Richmond is correct, which I think he is.

Henry on 1901 census states he is born 1891
Henry on 1911 census says he is born 1899      Not actually downloaded image, just sure its right one still living with Richmond at home)

If we go off the marriage certificate he would be born 1897

In 1901 there's a 10 year old Harry Feast with a dad Richmond,he's a railway labourer.He has a 21 year old sister with the wonderful name of Orange 

Age doesn't tie up with being 21 in 1915- but maybe dad got it wrong?
THe whole family were born in Fareham.

The same family in 1891 have a month old son called Henry

Hi Galium,

Oh dear not sure??? that would make his birth 1893

Now we have 1891  1893  1897 and 1899
