lloydy...don`t you think its strange that not one of the family were buried in st marys churchyard...can you find out whether susannah adams ,(whose is the only adams headstone i could find) married one of williams sons..also ,could this be because st marys church may not have been their religion..ie...catholic or protestant...if you know the area ,what religion is st mary`s...i was there whit sunday,but didn`t think to check what religion it was...thanks...allan

marthas husband(my g.grandfather was matthew john roberts born abt 1860 in welshpool.
The marriage I found wasn't the right then then?!!
I have no idea about St Mary's Church in Astley, but I can certainly find out for you.
It does seem strange that none of your ADAMS family are buried there, but there is the possiblity that they are there but without any headstones. I know a lot of my father's ancestors are all buried in the Dolhafren Cemetery in Llanidloes but few have headstones because they simply couldn't afford them.
Next time I go to the Shropshire Archives I will check out the Astley Parish Registers for you. According to their registers list they hold baptisms, marriages, burials, confirmations and banns for Astley.
