Hi Rose, Happy New Year! At Haverfordwest St. Mary a marriage apparently took place between Alisen Marchant and David Keethan in 1599..the ref. given in the index is to Francis Green Vol.8 p.59........someone may have Green's WWHR and be able to tell us to what this refers. There was also an Eleonora Marchant who married John Bateman at Steynton in 1712, which is a bit early to make her Catherine's sister. Abra Merchant married Laurence Brown in 1746 and Rebecca Merchant married Mark Lewis in 1748.....both at Burton. Tony told me a couple of years ago he had Marchant material from the 1600's so he may have some info. for you when he returns. There is a Will for David "Kethan" of St. Thomas H/west in 1604 and some Kethyns in Glamorgan. Something which might be of interest to both you and me.....there is a will for a Lawrence Brown of Little Moollock St. Ishmaels in 1601...perhaps the later Laurence was named for him. Under Mullock in Francis Jones' Pemb.book Henry Browne was tenant in 1610 at Little Mullock...the Davies were a bit later.
