looking for 1st marr:

-marriage to Mary Lloyd in Caernarvonshire (District Carnarvon)
-per 1851UKC 3 children from 1st marr (residing District Carnarvon)
James Roberts b 1843 in Llanbeblig, Caernarvonshire
per GRO no James b 1843 +/-2yrs in District Carnarvon
also none in in Ffestiniog
Only 1 in PWLLHELI:
ROBERTS, JAMES mother’s maiden name ROBERTS

GRO Reference: 1843 J Quarter in PWLLHELI UNION Volume 27 Page 375

Jane Roberts b 1843 in Llanbeblig, Caernarvonshire - too many

=1st marr should be before 1842, likely in Caernarvonshire
