Hi Marilyn,
Thank you very much for the info' on the Marriage Act, I did not have any knowledge of this, interesting.

I am not having any luck with finding the before mentioned details of the marriage details of this John and Edmund Thomas.
Did John marry a Harriet Baker on the 11.Feb.1849, in Machen?

Is it possible to find the details of both of them?

How can John Mary and Elizabeth be aged 15 in 1841?
John born in the County and Elizabeth born out of the County?
A baffled Norman
