Is it the location you're querying Carmy?

If so Ruyton, or Ruyton XI towns to give it its proper name is indeed in Shropshire. Sal is short for Salop, the old abbreviation for the county,

Ruyton XI towns is the only place I know whose name contains roman numerals. The nearest major city is Shrewsbury - about 10 miles away.

Hi Graham,

The strays section of the forum is where members can post details of people they find in records outside their expected location. In this instance Carmy has found a person from Shropshire who married in Carmarthenshire.

It is hoped that this information may assist someone who has "lost" an ancestor.
