Flintshire birth/ baptism look up

If your William was the one on the 1881 at  RG11/5527/136/12, then his father was still single in 1871 so, unless he came along with Ann,  William must have been born after that date:

1871 RG10/5674/51/8 - Daniel in Llannefydd also  in 1891  RG12/4626/143/28.

yes....but that really seems to indicate i have the wrong family. 

he wouldnt of added 10 years to his ages to marry a lady he was a similar age to?
and....another thing....it says on his marriage cert to Alice he was a widower....so he was married before!!! But I have no idea where to look for that one...wales..or was he already working away from home then? he really could of been absolutely anywhere!!

yeap...thats what i have.

As i said....i have searched and search between 1864-67 to find him and cant. the 1877 one is the one that keeps coming back.....but people keep telling me that the age on the marriage to Alice and  on the 1911 census are more likely to correct...he is more likely to of been fibbing about his age when he married he much younger Sarah.....
I dont think i'll ever find out for sure. x

just to update this thread. I purchased the birth certificate that seemed the likely match....(William Thomas Roberts
June q, 1877, St Asaph, 11b 392)

but it was not my William.

 I also purchased the marriage cert (Sept q, 1875, St Asaph, 11b 500 with Daniel Roberts and Anne Williams)  This seems likely to be my Great Grandparents.

The GRO have carried out two searches on my behalf to find a record of William Thomas Roberts between 1870 and 1880 but they were unable to find one whose parents were Daniel and Anne.

Do you think its worth another shot to ask them to search for his birth just using his mothers name? If he was illegitimate will it say so?
