Just to advise my interest in all things PINKERTON in Radnorshire. I
understand the name is most unusual in these parts!
My 3 x g.grandmother Elizabeth PROSSER (b Kings Pyon, Hef l787) married
William PINKERTON, "a private soldier in the Artillery Regiment" at
Ludlow, Shropshire in l8l2.
In l8l4 Elizabeth PINKERTON had a son, James, born Combe, Radnorshire.
She also had a daughter, Susannah, at Combe in l8l9, however William was
missing from both baptism entries ( Weobley, Hef.) and Susannah left a
blank against the name of her father on her marriage certificate in
l84l.
If the name PINKERTON (or variant) appears in any index for anything
anyone holds I should be most interested to hear of it.
I have traced Susannah on the l84l Census living with her aunt, Jane
ARCHER however have not found any further mention of her mother,
Elizabeth PINKERTON.
Please do keep me in mind if you ever come across this name.
Thank you very much.
