Notes

Marriage

They were married after banns by the vicar D A Williams. The witnesses were David Thomas and Charles Moss. John signed his name and Margaret made her mark (X). On the marriage certificate Margaret and her father's surname was spelt 'Philipps'. Also, John's father David Edwards' occupation was recorded as 'puddler'. This is probably an error or a piece of whimsy.
