"looking for Mr. Wright?".................Aren't we all !

If Catherine Davies is the mother and she married someone called Wright, then the only marriage I can see, for the moment is this one:-

Marriages Dec 1842 (>99%)
DAVIES Catherine Carmarthen 26 691
DAVIES Edward Carmarthen 26 691
EVANS Mary Carmarthen 26 691
Harris David Carmarthen 26 691
Lewis David Carmarthen 26 691
Lewis Sarah Carmarthen 26 691
PHILIPPS Jane Clark Sophia Carmarthen 26 691
WRIGHT Henry Carmarthen 26 691

The district Carmarthen spans the boundaries of the counties of Carmarthenshire, Dyfed and Pembrokeshire

.................but surname is Henry, if this Catherine married Henry Wright of course?
.................unless she married in Ireland?

I wonder whose child Mary Jane is?

The tree Quoy refers to has marriage and death certificates - Henry is a mariner on the MC and a fisherman on the DC. He certainly names Samuel, a painter, as his father.

Civil registration of births in Ireland didn't come into force until 1864..........

As Catherine is shown as unmarried, you have very little hope of getting further back on the father's side, as, with no marriage record to view, you can't find out when Samuel was born.....assuming that is the child's father's name.

Hello Lisa

a tree on Ancestry has this

BIRTH: 1856 - Dublin, Ireland
MARRIAGE: 30/08/1878 (30 Aug 1878) - Holyhead, Anglesey, Wales
DEATH: 1909 - Holyhead, Anglesey, Wales
PARENTS: Samuel Wright, Catherine Davis
SPOUSE: Jane Ellis

there is also a photograph of his headstone

I do not know if this will work but try it
