Emeline Ann Bunyan (c) 1884 and William Henry Bunyan (c) 1887

Please, information is being sought on the following two children, who were possibly born to William and Mary Jane Bunyan. ( Mary Jane being nee: Hopla ) on the above dates.
William Bunyan and Mary Jane Hopla were, I am lead to believe married around the 28th July 1883.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hallo genolad,
The two are with their grandparents Isaac and Eliza Hopla in 1901. I assume you have all info up to and inc 1901.(If not please say)
Here is the marriage for Emmeline Ann Bunyan Jan Feb March 1905 Pembrokes, Pembrokeshire 11a, 1432.
She did not marry John Gilbert Rees as he wed Mabel Anna and they are on 1911 census. Since there is no second male given in either A***** or free bMD I suggest that purchase of marriage cert from GRO (£9.25) is the only way forward. Once you have her married name then finding her should be easier.

Thank you for that [ this help ], hopefully I'll be able to get the information you suggest :-)

Well the marriage cert will give her husband's name and both groom and bride's fathers' names and occupations and if the fathers are deceased it may well say that. It should give the address both are at. That should make it easier to look on the 1911 for them. The witnesses names are sometimes a help too.
I tried using her first name only and looking in Wales in 1911 but they may have moved from that area. Once you know her married name you can see what children she had and look for her death. If you need any help with getting the cert just say.

Thank you Brian,

That information has moved my research on a mile, I thought Davies was the family name, but was unsure..... so thank you :-)
