Im looking for info on Emily Roberts. She married John Gough August 5th 1912 at St Gwladys Church Bargoed in the county of Glamorgan. Her Fathers name was Walter Roberts at the time of the marriage she was living at 10 Park Place Bargoed. She had sons called Francis Ronald and Douglas, she also had two daughters Marian and Doris. I am totally lost on this one and I think I have just brought 3 certificates for the wrong Emily Roberts. Any help would be very gratefully received

walter roberts the father was one of the witnesses so he was still alive in 1912
The other witness looks like Harold William Carrington. I havent found them on the 1901 census. I think Emily may have been born in Bristol as the family called her the bristol woman. I thought I had found her at 11 Baldwin Place Newport Wales, but it cant be as the mother shown there died in 1891.
