Hello Mantle researchers Today I received a marriage certificate for John Mantle (born abt 1830) & Mary Jones (born abt 1820) who married on 26 May 1851 at Hyssington Parish Church, both of full age. John's father is David Mantle, a shepherd, and a Jack Mantle is one of the witnesses. John & Mary's four children (Sarah, Jane, Anna, John) were all born in Bettws-y-Crwyn in Shropshire in the 1860s. I am descended from Jane. Does anyone have any connections to this Mantle family?

Natalie - there were a few Mantles around Bargoed when I was growing up there. One (John Mantle) played professionally rugby league "up north"; the other David came from Deri.
