Hi,

A copy of the marriage certificate should show the name and occupation of their fathers; using that information you can look for baptism records for Henry and Hester.

Given the location of the marriage - you may want to consider this entry.  However - I agree with Nanny Jan - you need the marriage cert as there were other Henry James in that area

Henry James married Esther Phillips, both of full age. Henry was a bachelor, and a collier, father William James, also a collier. Can't make out the residence sorry.

Esther was a spinster, servant, of Begelly Houses(?), father David Phillips, a cooper.

Witnesses: William James (his father?) and John Jones (parish clerk).

Henry (and William) signed his name, Esther made her x mark.

The Henry James baptism in Begelly in 1808 (reply from CaroleW above) was the son of William James (no mothers listed on the page).

Many,many thanks to you all for those replies.The reason i spelt the name Hester as such,that how it was spelt on her Sons "Birth Cert",he was also named William.Once again many thanks to you all.

Looks like Martha (burial on 1 Feb 1851, aged 22 months) and Mary Ann (13 Oct 1855, aged 0), died as infants...
