Dorothy Lewis born c 1769 Tidenham or Chepstow

Hello, this is my first posting to this forum.

I am researching the Johns family and their ancestors. Elizabeth Johns born 1841 Chepstow was the daughter of George Johns and Frances Thomas.

Frances Thomas was the daughter of Arnold Thomas and Dorothy Lewis.

According to the census Arnold Thomas was born about 1768 somewhere in Herefordshire. Dorothy Lewis was born about the same time in either Chepstow or Tidenham according to which census you believe but I have been unable to find a baptism record for her.

Any help would be appreciated.
