Hi Norm.
Thanks for your interest, After doing some checking it would seem unlikely that there is
any connection between Annie and my Morris's.
I must correct your belief that Llansaintffraid was ever better known as Welshpool. These
two places are miles apart and have always had separate identities.
The 1881 census records Annie as being born in Guilsfield and her husband born in
Welshpool. Guilsfield is a small place just outside Welshpool.
Although I'm sure that if we go back far enough we could find a link. However, at the
time in question all my Morris's were born in Llansaintffraid and prior to that
originated from a village called Llanyblodwell just over the border in Shropshire. At
present I have no Morris links with the Welshpool area.
If your interested in the exact locations of the villages then please contact me directly
and I will attempt to send you a map indicating the relevant places.
Regards
Chas.
