Thank you so much for all this information. Since I haven't used this site too much and I'm not sure what all the records indicate, I'm wondering why you think that Sarah BEVAN might be the wife of James MORGAN. I found this marriage record that I believe is theirs and the last name is BETHEL:

I'm also wondering what the Oct-Nov-Dec 1852 registration for James Morgan and Sarah Beavan that you posted means. Does this have to do with marriage? Thanks again. Your information was most helpful!
