This couple rented Captainstyle Farm during their marriage, a holding of 16 acres south of Narberth. Daniel took a job as coachman and this was probably with the Slebech estate which owned this farm.

Their marriage record is in the Register of Marriages,^[1]. Her age here is given as 27, but on her tombstone she is said to be 52 years old, which gives her birth year as 1816. She was buried in Carmel Chapel cemetary and her 17 year old daughter Sarah is buried beside her.^[2]
