Thanks again.
I'm now looking for my great great grandmother, Jane Jones, born about 1824 in Pembrokeshire, who married Charles  Bureau. I don't know how to post that on this site!! I can't find any records for her or sisters Lettuce or Mary, or father Thomas. I'm guessing they must have been non-conformist chapel goers?

Brilliant work PB!
Clare & I have deduced that Lettice & Jane were both married in Portsea in April & July 1850 respectively. It seems their father Thomas Jones died after Lettice’s marriage but before Jane’s. This is quite a small window of time but as Thomas Jones is quite a common name & we don’t know where he died, it’s not an easy task.
Clare, I’ve had a look at Free BMD & there are no deaths in Pembroke or Portsea for this time period. I wonder if we are looking at an event like Charles Bureau’s where the death was not registered in the normal fashion.

I didn't see this one on freebmd, but it shows at the GRO:

Image of Lettice's marriage to Valentine BYLES is on FindMyPast 28 April 1850.

So is Jane's 18 July 1850. Lettice Byles is a witness, and Thomas the father is shown as deceased, at least that is what it looks like. Charles is a Petty Officer in RN and his father John is a coach maker.

Both at Parish Church, Portsea.

Added - Not sure if you have this or even if it is your Lettice
Lettice BYLES death registered
GRO Reference: 1855  S Quarter in PORTSEA ISLAND  Volume 02B  Page 238 - aged 30

Do you know what happened to Mary?
What was their mother's name?

I have an ancestor named Mary JONES born c1808 in Wales. Like looking for a needle in a haystack.
