Hello I am new to this list, I will try to put my requested down so you may read it easy
if i can, and hope not to affend any one with my writing.
My interests are the surname of BENBOW from Montgomeryshire, places such as
Ceri/Kerry,Llanmeriwig,Trefeglwys,Llanllwchairn,Llanernog where I have visted to check out
the church yards to pick up some information of Montumental Inscritions to which i found
some which where badly worn over the years.
My search as led me to find a Pryce Owen Benbow born 1775 and live in Ceri/Kerry and his
buried there, his parents are John Benbo and Elizabeth Owenwho married in May 1769 in
Ceri. Pryce live at a farm called giants Bank and raised his father there.
It is his parents information that i need to find out about, as there is nothing any where
about either of them.
The tithe apportionment for Llaneriwig, Giants Bank Farm is mark on this map and shows
that a certian John Benbow ( is this the one I am looking for dont know) was the occupier
of Church House Farm as this was owner by Captain Sir Charles Thomas Jones (Royal Navy)
cant not find out about him as well. As most of you who will know who are searching the
name of Benbow will find them in Treglwys and some of them moved to USA leaving a few
behind i am trying to find where my branch came from, sorry my letter is so long as I
wanted to put in as much as I could to try and help any one that could help me in my quest
to located the linage og the John Benbo and Elizabeth Owen of Ceri/Kerry thank you sandy
