Yes I also think she never married but on all census records John was listed as being born in a different place,1881 in crewe,1891 in Wrexham's, cannot find him in 1901 and 1911 dolgellau ffestiniog,
I search everything I find that may give a little hope but I do not think I will be able to go any further back with this line.

Thank you for your input.

She was calling herself a widow 6 years before Thomas was born

If Anne was 25 when she married, she certainly wasn't born in 1850
