Notes from Geoff McKee: Richard EDDY (son of Thomas EDDY and Elizabeth SAUNDRY) carpenter of Trevean, bachelor of full age married Eliza EDDY (daughter of William EDDY and Mary PENGELLY) spinster of Trevean, of full age 26 Aug 1841 Morvah. [Thomas EDDY was a miner. William EDDY was a victualler.]

However, I believe that Geoff's conclusion for Eliza's parents is probably wrong - see Eliza's notes for reasoning.
