Will send an email to your Hull address with further details about my research … too much to say to fit into messages on here!

@GenealogyJude @ChalfontR @ProfProbert @Workhouses @GwentArchives You’re welcome … I’ve found records for my own family from the Pontypool Union in that collection recently, which were similarly confusing at first sight until I worked out what the collection really is - Ancestry don’t have a particularly helpful description or name for it …
English
@JenniPh @ChalfontR @ProfProbert @Workhouses @GwentArchives Jenni, I think you are right! It is from the Gwent workhouse registers collection on Ancestry but it probably belongs elsewhere. I imagine the record would have been kept by the Superintendent Registrar. Thanks for your help.
English
Hannah Denner appears before the Superintendent Registrar of Abergavenny at the Register Office on 3 October 1871 and declares that there is no impediment to her forthcoming marriage. This is in the workhouse documents for Gwent. Thoughts?

English
@GenealogyJude @ChalfontR @ProfProbert @Workhouses Is it from the Gwent ‘Workhouse Registers’ collection on Ancestry? If so, I think the collection’s name is misleading - the Abergavenny records appear to come from this collection at @GwentArchives - catalogue.gwentarchives.gov.uk/en/records/CSW… - so not exclusively workhouse records …
English
@ChalfontR @ProfProbert @Workhouses I guess what I really want to know is why it would be lodged with the workhouse? Even if she was inmate, she was free to leave and get married.
