Hi there,
There is a marriage between :-

Agnes Jones and Thomas C Williams registered in the September quarter of 1914 in Wellington Sh - ref no, 6a 1659 ,

The district Wellington Sh. is an alternative name for Wellington Sal and it is in the county of Shropshire just over the Welsh border.

Although the birth dates of the children are earlier, this would be worth checking, we never know what we find !!

Regards
Carol

Glamorgan is South Wales..............Shropshire borders North Wales.

The registration district for the births is Pontypridd.

Did you learn Agnes's maiden name from the birth cert(s)?

many thanks for trying to help so promtly.i did know about the record in shrops but discounted it on the information i have.do you or have you any idea if any of the nonconformists records are kept in the GRO in cardiff. agnes,s maiden name is JONES, the birth cert records that the mother is agnes WILLIAMS formerly JONES , now in quoting a lady in the records office in swansea that if a birth cert records the mothers former maidens name as well as her married name take it they are married.i,m strugling here so bear with me please i,m 77 and never done this typing before.hope all this makes sense

Had you noticed the marriage of a Thomas Charles Williams in the March quarter of 1904 in Pontypridd (Ref: 11a 656) on Freebmd? Its just that there are two men listed under this reference but only one woman so its just possible that, for some reason, Agnes's name is missing from the index.

Hope this helps
