Need one quick look up on Findmypast if anyone can help

Record Lookup

Looking for more information on ancestor named Mary Richard (born est 1820-?) in Llandrillo, Pembrokeshire. She has proven rather elusive!

Listed on the 1861 England and Wales census. She is widowed. Unable to find name of first spouse.

I *believe* by 1871 England and Wales census, Mary remarries and becomes Mary Morris.

She marries Thomas Morris (1811-?)

Kids are:

Dinah Richards (1853-1929)

John Richards (1850-?)

Frances Morris (1861-?)

Also her son, John Richards (1850-?) disappears off the next census records.

I am looking for her first "Richards" husband who must have died young and her maiden name. Any parents you find would be gold!!

I have the links with the record below if you need it.

Thank you!
