I'm not researching that particular family group, but they were not too far
from my husband's line in Trefeglwys. There were Benbow family groups
scattered between Llanidloes and Shrewsbury from the 1600's forward. If you are able
to trace your line back to the Quaker group or their Anglican kin, I would be
particularly interested in hearing from you. I do collect whatever
information I do find on the family, as I hope we can eventually construct some larger
family trees from the smaller ones, primarily through good research
methodology, but also with a little help from DNA studies, as well.
