Hi Roy & all I wonder if Ann's maiden name was Williams. I looked up Anne Philpotts in 1841 & found her with her son John, 2, in the household of a William Williams in Clydach/Llanelly. No Mary with them Mary Philpotts aged 4 is to be found in the household of a John Williams, in Ewyas Harold (Herefordshire). Looks to me as though she turned to her brothers to help her out - only a guess, but based on a bit of detective work! You may be lucky & on the marriage certificate it may say Ann Philpotts (formerly .............)

Hi, In my tree I have John Breese, who was on the 1841 census, age 9, with his parents in Caersws, Llanwnog. Parents were Matthew Breese,carrier, and Ann née Gwillim.
