I'm happy that the bride is this person:

I think I have Jane in Glamorganshire in 1891:
LOWRY, Thomas Head Married M 30 1861 Furnaceman West Bromwich
LOWRY, Jane Wife Married F 28 1863 West Bromwich
LOWRY, Thomas Son Single M 8 1883 West Bromwich
TRYER, Jessie Visitor Single F 2 1889 West Bromwich
BARKER, Frances Visitor Single F 18 1873 West Bromwich
SCOTLOCK, John Boarder Married M 45 1846 Coal Maker West Bromwich

Frances is Jane's sister, I think!

1901
77b, Guns Lane, West Bromwich
LAWLEY, Thomas Head Married M 50 1851 Iron Works Labourer West Bromwich
LAWLEY, Jane Wife Married F 50 1851 West Bromwich
LAWLEY, Tom Son Single M 18 1883 Iron Worker Shingler West Bromwich
LAWLEY, Mark Son M 10 1891 West Bromwich

1911
17 Darmouth St West Bromwich
LAWLEY, Thomas Head Married 29 years M 52 1859 Labourer Ironworks Cross Street Slyng Staffs
LAWLEY, Jane Wife Married F 49 1862 Tyndal St West Bromwich Staffs

LAWLEY, Mark Son Single M 19 1892 Caster Hollow Ware Foundry Croft St West Bromwich Staffs
HALL, Hannah Lodger Widow F 65 1846 Charwoman Cradley Mall Cellow Staffs

My question is do we think that Thomas Lowry is Thomas Lawley, and that the BC accent confused the welsh?

I'd spotted the 1871 census for Thomas' family, thanks for the others

I'm wondering what the concensus is as far as the 1891 census in Wales is concerned. I originally found it due to Frances Barker being on it, and did think sister Jane was married to a Thomas Lowry - the marriage record now makes it certain to me that Jane married aThomas Lawley. My main question is do we think that the 1891 Census in Glamorganshire is correct? I can always put it down as a possible.

It certainly looks like the same family to me, on Ancestry the 2 year old is Jessie Fryer not Tryer

Been looking through my notes again and I think Jessie is Jane's niece - I have her sister Ruth marrying a James Friar/ Fryer and on the 1901 census there is a Jessie who matches up.

I've added the 1891 census notes as a possible to Jane and Thomas. That BC accent must have confused those taffies!!!
