I'm going along with the John and Louisa idea. Mary Ann and Arthur are both J&L and I'm wondering if the baptism for Emma (William and Louisa) might be an error on part of the vicar...Too many Williams!! Mary, Emma and Arthur in the 1881 census at Skenfrith intrigues me. I have ordered a marriage cert' for Mary Ann and James Price to see what that reveals..
|
The 1881 census intrigues me... they live next door to Thomas and Sophia Williams who I originally had down for being the parents.. I can't find the evidence right now but I think Sophia Williams was a Powell and her mother was Mary Powell...

Look for info on freebmd and on the GRO site

Re your last two posts -
I agree that the name William for Emma's father on her baptism record is just human error, and should be John.
ErikaH has posted 1861 showing that Louisa's mother was Mary, and Mary seems to be living with young Mary, Emma and Arthur in 1881.
Re Sophia - I can't find an mmn which is the same for all her apparent children in the censuses:
Sophia Williams in the 1901 Wales Census Name: Sophia Williams Age in 1901: 67 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1834 Relation: Wife Spouse: Thomas Williams Gender: Female Where born: Glascoed, Monmouthshire, Wales Civil Parish: Skenfrith Ecclesiastical parish: St Bridget County/Island: Monmouthshire Country: Wales Street Address: View image Condition as to marriage: View image Education: View image Employment status: View image Occupation: View image Registration District: Monmouth Sub-registration District: Monmouth ED, institution, or vessel: 21 Neighbors: Household Schedule Number: 23 Piece: 4924 Folio: 86 Page Number: 5 Household Members: Name Age Thomas Williams 57 Sophia Williams 67

Hello, update: Marriage certificate arrived today which I thought was very quick ! Her father was John Williams and his occupation is given as 'Farm Bailiff'. I have looked at the Holm Lacy, Herefordshire, John Williams several times, it would seem to be the answer.. I'm thinking that John returned to Herefordshire and Mary decided to remain in Skenfrith and 2 of her younger siblings stayed with her (1881 census). Would that make sense given the available evidence ? And by the way, thank you all for the research you've done !
