Have you got the first marriage cert to Owen?
Marriages Dec 1882
Evans Owen Merthyr Tydfil 11a 757 JONES Margaret Merthyr T. 11a 757
That's very close to 1881 and would give you an address which hopefully is where her parents live.

Here's Owen and family in 1891:

Hello Polly Poppit.
I would like to say Thank you for the information you have forwarded to me. I do have most of that information. My problem is finding their parents, I really do not know were to start, the only information I have is about both fathers who are named on their marriage certificate and that is all. If you know of any document I can send for which will give me more details I will quite happily send for it. I have both marriage and death certificates, for David and Margaret. Thank you once again Vivien.

Hello to everyone, before I start please do not laugh. I am researching Jones/Evans in Dowlais.My father Willie Jones born March 7 1909 2, Market St Dowlais. son of Margaret and David Jones both born abt 1861. and married 1905. Both had been married previous, David to Elizabeth Jones either 1 or 2 Pant Road and Margaret to Owen Evans. Margaret and Owen had 5 children Rachel/Harriet/Thomas/Margret Eleanor and Gladys. Owen Evans died in 1901 Pontypridd. When married to David they also had a little girl born 1905 Annie Jones.both born Dowlais David had a brother that emigrated to Chicago called Edward in 1880
I know that Davids father was called James (Woodman) and had died before 1905 and Margarets father was called Thomas Jones Foreman of coal washing machine at Steel Works, he had died before 1905. Help totally stumped. Vivien. :-(
