Hello Anthony
You may remember me and my quest for more information on Ann Ashton, born 12 March 1852,
at High Street, Tredegar, Monmouthshire. Her parents were Charles Ashton, (born in
Trefeglwys), and Ann, nee Humphreys, born in Llanidloes. In 1881 they were living at
Lower Farm, Bedwellty, Monmouthshire, along with Hannah 25, Mary Jane 21, Elizabeth 18,
and Sarah 15. Ann's son (my grandfather) was also there aged 4.
With all this interest in the Ashton family turning up again (I am finding it all
fascinating), I wondered if you may have any further information which would help me with
my brick wall. I have been unable to find out if Ann ever married, or what happened to
her after 1881. When I visited Kew a while ago, the pages I thought would relate to this
area and time were blackened, so that is probably the sad answer.
Hoping for a miracle. Best wishes.
