The census actually says just "Taff Street". I'm making the assumption that they still lived at number 5 back then.

I'm just assuming that 5 Taff Street in Cyfarthfar is the same place as 5 Taff Street in Caepantwyll.

Event Note

Bachelor Thomas was 28 and spinster Sarah 24 on 7 June 1897 when they married by certificate at Merthyr Tydfil register office. Thomas said he was a blacksmith, son of William Williams, deceased blacksmith. Sarah gave no profession, and was daughter of Edward baker, iron baller. Thomas and Sarah both signed their names. Witnesses were Edward Baker, who made a mark, and another illegible Baker who signed.

Thomas lived at 41 Gwaelodygarth Terrace, Merthyr Tydfil.
Sarah Lived at 5, Taff Street, Caepantwyll (and thanks to the wonderful Alan George website for deciphering that!) That's called Cae-pant-tywyll on current OS maps. It's not exactly clear where Taff Street or Gwaelodygarth Terrace were, but they can't have been five minutes walk apart.
