Hi - can anyone help with trying to find a marriage between a Robert Evans and his wife Elizabeth, who was also named Evans before her marriage and I believe she was his cousin. They both came from Oswestry, and both were hawkers of ceramic pots. I beleive they married about 1858, probably in Oswestry (though possibly in Montgomery). I did find a possible reference int he GRO for Montgomery in 1861, but both the local office in Welshpool and the GRO say that though there is an ELizabeth and a Robert Evans on the same page, they didn't marry each other.
I would love to track this down for my aunt, who would like to know about her family, and who has been wonderful to me since I recently lost my mother. Any help would be most welcome. Thank you.

According to an extracted record on the IGI, there is a marriage between Robert Evans and Elizabeth Evans in Montgomery, on 25 Aug 1856

Gro ref vol 11b page 335

Hope this helps.

Thanks for this - I'll follow it up - fingers crossed!

Two plus years late, but I'm so sorry about your motherd death.
Hope since posting this message you have found all you were hoping to.

Good Luck

Thanks for your reply. I did send for details of what appeared to be the correct marriage, but on further investigation though both were on the same page, they actually married other people, so sadly I still haven't been able to track the marriage down. They travelled around a lot - which doesn't help - selling pottery/ceramics etc. They also appear to move between Shropshire and various locations in Wales, which also confuses matters. As a result I haven't been able to get back that much further. I live in hope though. thanks for your kind thoughts about my mother - time is as ever a great healer.

Best wishes, and thanks.
