I am looking for the surname of the ann that married a john hill, John hill was born 1826 and l think ann was born between 1826 and 1840. Ive been looking for the marriage but can only find the census for the family alltogether.
I am assuming that she was born in cardiff,wales as was john hill.

It would help to know the names of the rest of the family and what area they were born according to the census you found them on

That is the correct one, Katie.

Roxanne has a thread about John's parents, and I've found the family in 1851, showing John to have been born in Cumberland
