Hi, I found the following in a Google search but don't know where to go from here. Where would I go to get more information on the marriage, get a certificate etc.? Would it be recorded in Llanboidy Parish? What is an Afidaviate & Marriage Bond? What information would I find on them? What information would they contain. I'm not sure these are the right parrents because Ellen Phillips, born Jul 1813 (can't find a baptism in parish register) was born in St. Martin's Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire. This marriagehas the right time period, occupation & names though, so might be her parents, How would I know for sure? PHILLIP, David, farmer, bach., Llanboidy, CMN. 1802, February 6. At Ll.

I've order the films for the 41 and 51 census for Haverfordwest to see if I can find them there. I haven't found them in any census (1861, 1871, 1881) yet.

Hi Fred A bond does not mean that a marriage took place, only that they paid an amount of money that they forfeited if the marriage did not take place. I cannot find them in my database, but they could have married in Pembrokeshire, I only have Pembs from 1813-1837 the only one I have of the given names is 1793 19th December Llanginning parish church David Phillip Trelech ar bettws and Elizabeth Griffith Llanginning this cannot be them as it is pre the bond........the only other David Phillip and Elizabeth from Llanboidy is 1808 David Phillip cabinet maker and Elizabeth Lewis both of Llanboidy Pauline ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fred Seamons" <fseamons@ubtanet.com> To: <CARMARTHENSHIRE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, October 04, 2005 4:34 AM Subject: [Cmn-L] Llaniboidy marriage afidaviat and Bond Phillip & Griffith > Hi, > > I found the following in a Google search but don't know where to go from > here.
