Hi Michael and Vicky
You may already have the answers to your request for a look-up.
I have both John and Jane PEMBER in the 1861 census, though not
any of their children, as they would have gone by this time.
According to the census, John was born in Spitalfields London
and in 1861 he and Jane were living in a place called Pengarn in
the parish of Boughrood - near Glasbury? in the enumeration district
of Hay, Breconshire - but this is probably on the border with Radnorshire.
(I'm not an expert on Welsh hamlets/villages!)
John PEMBER aged 60 years was an ag. lab!,whilst Jane was aged 50 years-
and her birthplace Llowes - I think a nearby hamlet.
I believe that at one time there was a thriving trade sending cattle?/
sheep from Wales and the Borders - involving drovers - so this may be the
connection. Someone on the list may know more!!
Sorry, but I don't have any other census information for this part of
Radnor - but the Powys FHS may have covered it in their printed 1851 census
index.
Hope this helps
Richard
