I know very little about this one - only his daughter's baptism record:

Margaret Lision bap 30th May 1818, Cilybebyll, Glamorgan, parents Evan and Jennet Lision

and her marriage:

Margaret Leyshon married David Lewis 1839, father Evan Leyshon

I do have the marriage cert, but my stuff is in such a state of chaos at the moment (in the process of moving house) that I can't immediately find it - I'll post the details here when I do!

Here's Margaret's TO3G thread: http://www.genealogistsforum.co.uk/f...ead.php?t=9392

STILL can't find it - I'm getting somewhat irritated because the same folder contains most of my FH notes. I reckon my mum must have moved it

Finally managed to dig out the certificate - and yes, Mum had moved it
