Many thanks for your clues from the Marriage Index. I'll contact Haverfordwest because I think they might have married after first obtaining a license. The surname is definitely Aubrey or Obray, sometimes even Awbrey. John Barnett Aubrey served an apprenticeship as a Shipwright Boy in Milford. In 1812, he became a full Shipwright and married that same year. Eleanor Allen, born 1789, was the daughter of John Allen, a shipwright who lived at London Road in Pembroke Dock. Interestingly enough, John Barnett Aubrey, died on 12 December 1845. The day before, he had fallen off one of the stages round a vessel in to one of the building slips. There is this notation from a history of Pembroke: "On 19 December 1845, the CJ reported his death." Do you have any idea what CJ might stand for? Could it be a newspaper or an abbreviation related to a coroner's report of some kind? Craig in Texas
