Hi
One of My 3x greatgrandfathers was Richard WILLIAMS said to have been baptised in St Kinmmark(?)Woolaston. The county given is Mon.but isn`t Woolaston in Gloucestershire?This was in 1783(father William, mother Frances)

St Kingsmark nr Chepstow ( Kinmark /Kynmark)
a possible connection - I think the record transcription says residence St Kinmmark , Mon , baptised in Woolaston.
ST. KINGSMARK, or Kynemark, is a parish, formerly extra parochial, 1 mile northwest from Chepstow railway station, in the hundred of Caldicot, union and county court district of Chepstow, and, for ecclesiastical purposes, included in the parish of St. Arvans. Here was once a small priory, founded before 1291. Its history is involved in obscurity, but some fragments of wall yet remain to mark its site. There was also a church here, every vestige of which has now disappeared.
The Duke of Beaufort is lord of the manor.
