Her father was William POWELL a forgeman. We are looking for his marriage
and any siblings. She gave her place of birth as Newbridge. Can anyone help
me with this please. Regards Joan
Hi again Joan,
The only possible Ruabon marriage I could find for William between 1813
and 1827 is:
19th Nov 1821 at Ruabon Parish Church, William POWELL (otp) and Susannah
JONES (otp), with consent of parents. Witnesses: Thomas POWELL &
Rebeccah DAVIES.
There are no baptisms in Ruabon between 1813 and 1828 for parents
William and Susannah POWELL.
However, the other option I suggested have two entries:
13th Jun, 1821 : Margaret POWEL baptised at Ruabon Parish Church, d/o
William (pudler) and Sarah of Cefn Bychan.
14th Nov, 1823 : Estther POWEL baptised at Ruabon Parish Church, d/o
William (pudler) and Sarah of Cefn Bychan.
I should also point out that if you cross the bridge over the River Dee
at Newbridge you leave Ruabon parish and enter Chirk parish. Also
Llangollen parish is only a few minutes away. You may need to spread
your search a bit wider.
