Looks like you've sorted out that mess. There is a potential for some kind of lurking issue to creep in (it is intriguing that her Davies and Abbot offspring keep their father's surname when the Evans ones didn't, the latter being the normal way of things. Also she was 44 when her last child was born and there is an 8 year break between children 1820-1828, which might suggest we have different women) but stranger things have happened.* You've managed to do the best with the available information and it looks solid to me. Good job.

It is the kind of issue that'd be good to throw some DNA tests at to try and tie everyone together.

* On my wife's side one ancestor got married, had a bunch of kids but by the time he was in his 60s all his children and his wife had died, so he remarried and had a lot more children, a lot of whom were given the same names as the previous batch. For a long time I had them down as as two generations (as he'd helpfully named a son after himself). His son then had 3 children by 2 different women (the last 2 kids being born in the same year) and neither of those women were his wife, who he married later. There was clearly something in the water.

Although looking through it, you might want to change the relationship status of the others to "partner" from "husband" as it is neater than flagging it up in the marriage location section.

Hi, I left them as husband whilst trying to work out who was who.

There are still a couple of discrepancies. I am going to see if i can find birth records for the children under any of the partners/husbands surnames.
