There is a marriage of Thomas BOSLEY in December quarter 1860 in Merthyr Tydfil ( GRO ref 11a 500) and one of the other parties on the page is Ann HARRIS. She might have been a widow with maiden name LEWIS. There is a possible marriage in March quarter 1857 in Merthyr Tydfil (GRO ref 11a 441) of Ann LEWIS and David HARRIS , though that may just be a coincidence of names. There are a number of other cases in Merthyr registration district of possible marriages of Ann or Anne LEWIS and a male HARRIS, in 1856, 1852 and 1846. This from www.freebmd.org.uk , probably the best free search engine for registrations of births marriages and deaths in England and Wales from 1837 to the mid-20th century.
