Thank you very much for that information.

According to the 1911 census they had 9 children 5 of which had died and I was just trying to work out who they were.
I know about William James, Charles , Edith and Mary Jane. Mary Jane was born 1892 Newbridge Wales.

Thanks again

Henry and Mary married on 17 August 1879 in Taunton. There were no children on the 1881 census.

They must have moved to Wales between 1881 and 1886.

Thanks Gins.

I will have to get those certs. I think I will need to do a bit of saving up first though.

What an unusual name "Wyndham Chappell" I wonder what made them pick that one?.

All the best
