Hi Colin,

The best place to start is with sams marriage certificate, this should tell you his fathers name and his occupation. The witnesses maybe of help too??

You can order online at The General Register, the cost is less than £10.00 and the certificate takes normally around 1 week to arrive.

The marriage certificate will also state if the couple have been arried before, ie; batchelor or widow.

Colin,

I've been looking on census returns and it looks like Ann Jones, nee Bevan was actually born in 1859........ and I think I see her in 1881 and 1891 married to Samuel Jones. Looking at the 1901 census again Ann Jane Jones 1882 was born in Liverpool...... that's where I find Ann and Samuel Jones in 1881!!!!
