Hi Gareth
beg to differ, all the Howell family in my line from Llanddowror changed
their name to Howells, seemed to
be around the 1870's and all who moved to Pontypridd
changed their name to Howells....maybe they were wanted!!!

I have been looking for links all along Dave and it is interesting but
I
have found none at all.
Our guide has always been at least in our branch of the family that "s"
is not related.
That has just been our family lore. Father always used to say "Howells ?
that's Birmingham!"
