I am trying to work out which of Moses RICHARDS' 2 wives was the mother of my husband's ancestor... James RICHARDS born 1876

I have Moses RICHARDS born Leintwardine Herefordshire in 1838.... parents Samuel RICHARDS (1802 Leintwardine) and Jane (born 1799 Penybont, Wales)

I found the family in St. Lawrence, Ludlow in 1841 and Stanton Lacy in 1851.... samuel was a stonemason

Moses married Eliza BOWEN 2 Aug 1859.... Ludlow Shropshire... from IGI

In 1861... Moses, wife Eliza and daughter Sarah are living in St. Lawrence, Shrops.

Then I have a gap.... can't find them in 1871.

By 1881 Moses is now married to Mary.... they are living in Stokesay, Shrops..... I can't find when Moses and Mary married... so haven't been able to work out who was the mother of James born in 1876

Any ideas?
many Thanks
