I have Sarah in my tree, married to Edward Jones - 2nd great grandparents. Have not been able to go further back than James and Hannah on this line.

Hi everyone. I seem to have veered off course just when I thought I was doing so well! I have Sarah Barrow bap. 1824 Chepstow, married Edward Jones 1841, buried 1898 Tutshill. I have her parents as James Barrow and Hannah Jones. However it appears that I have the wrong James Barrow (bap 1785 Woolaston) son of John and Love Barrow. This James, it now turns out, was buried in Woolaston in 1787.

I can not find another James who could have married Hannah Jones. Does anyone have Sarah Barrow in their tree or can someone suggest where I should go next.
