I wonder if Susanna's maiden name was given as Chapman Stone and the Registrar misheard and wrote Shapstan? I suppose you have to allow for a Kent accent and the fact that the Registrar was more used to a Welsh accent.

Also do you have Joseph in 1851?
There is a Joseph Snelling lodging in Neath, aged 33, a Carpenter born Ireland. Says he is married but no wife/family with him.

Thanks Emeltee.

Must be the reason. No sign of any births, marriages or deaths with that name.

Deaths Mar 1872 SNELLING Joseph 59 Newport M. 11a 127

1871 is a problem if it shows Joseph 57 carpenter born Surrey.

I've not seen the images for census for this family yet.

I've not found the family in 1861 yet. Not in England or Wales.

No sign of the family in 1861 and in 1871 Joseph is down as a carpenter born Surrey.

Ireland or Surrey?? I don't know at the moment.
