Hi
I have looked through the Carmarthen Town records that I have, and I too
cannot see Gabriel Powell........there are not many Powell's in Carmarthen
itself......there is only one gentleman listed as baptising children ...
1820 2nd Feb
Charles Powell son of John and Elizabeth Powell, Fountain Hall, Gent
cannot see a Gabriel anywhere.....

Subject: [CMN-L] Gabriel Powell Carmarthen
i have just received a copy of a baptism in Llangain, Carmarthenshire
of
Elizabeth, daughter of Gabriel Powell and Elizabeth Anthony on 5th
October 1835. It says that the baby was illegitimate. They are living
in
Carmarthen at the time and the rank or profession of the father is shown
as a
word I believe begins with a D - then the rest of the word crossed out.
If
I had to guess I would say the word was drugist. Underneath that is
Esqr -
short for esquire?? Does that mean the father was the son of a
gentleman / gentry?
I can find no mention of Gabriel in any of the censuses and no record of
his death either.
Can anyone throw any light onto this family please?
Any information will be much appreciated
Many thanks
