I have a little puzzle for you.

In the family James & Ann Edwards from 1841 census there is indeed a William with birth year 1825. You have listed that William married Susanna Down.

How do you know that it is this William (parents of James And Ann) who married Susanna Downs?

On the parish records there are 3 William Edwards born in 1825, one in Parkend, one in Lydney and the other in Ross-On-Wye.

When comparing the fathers occupations it would appear that William with parents of James And Mary married Susanna Downs, fathers occupation mason. A William Edwards (also born 1825) married Selina James on 21 May 1850, fathers occupation collier. I think this William has the parents James & Ann.

I do not know any of the above by authority but just by fitting pieces of information together to see what fits. Of course I could be completely wrong.
