Accuracy check needed re Daughters[edit]

The article calls his predeceasing daughter Marie Nesta and states she has a memorial window at Ruabon, in Denbighshire. However, today I visited Llangedwyn Church in Montgomeryshire and saw a memorial window to the same girl, with identical dates, calling her Mary Nesta. One panel shows her walking barefooted holding flowers, in the next she is being carried to Heaven by angels, with a picture of the church building in background. The question is whether Ruabon is an error or it happened to be the location of another window put up as a memorial to her. (I have never been inside the church there - at the time I tried on a visit it was not open between services.) His surviving daughter's birth year is given as 1846 - six years before the stated date of Sir Watkin's marriage, so I suspect there is need to check this also. Their father was himself buried at Llangedwyn, where an ornate cross gravestone marks his grave, according to his obituaries.Cloptonson (talk) 21:18, 20 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
