Hi, I'm looking for info about a Christiana Maria Delahay 1845 - 1917, married William Morgan ( born 1844 ) in 1866 madley.
her father was James labourer, from madley. Witness at the wedding was a Margaret Delahay. I've found bits and pieces of info of the Delahay family around about but no definate links.
can anybody help please.  Charlie

Hi Charlie

to James and Ann.

I wonder where she is in 1851 census?
surname misspelt perhaps??

Under DILLAHAY;

1851 Census
Woodyatts Field,
Madley, Herefordshire
HO107/1978/401/31
James DELLAHAY, 44, Head, Mar, Agricultural Labourer, born Madley
Ann, 39, Wife, Mar, born Madley
CHRISTIANNA, 6, Daug, born Madley
Margaret, 3, Daug, born Moses
James DAVIES, 51, Brother In Law, Unm, Ag Lab,  born Madley

So Ann was nee Davies/Davis but I cant find a Marriage!
Looks like Sister Margaret may have been the Witness at the Wedding.

thanks for the info, looks good, the 1845 date of birth I took from burial info Jan 1917 aged 71.
Delahay is frequently mispelled, also Christiana sometimes as 2 n's.
James Davies was the other witness at William and Christiannas' wedding. Son Arthur baptised at madley 26-04-1867
