John Davies circ 1760, Worthen.
« on: Thursday 14 June 07 20:56 BST (UK) »

I have a John Davies in my family tree can anyone please help me [the  birth date area is a bit of guess work] his wife was Elizabeth [Philpot] Davies.They had four children baptised in Worthen, Shropshire/Montgomeryshire Border village.
Richard Davies 1784, Martha Davies 1789, Edward Davies 1791, Annie Davies 1797. It's very probable they were corn millers or shopkeepers in Worthen/Brockton, as were the family were some years later. Any help would be greatfully appreciated. Eric.

Hi Eric,

Not what you want - but I have found Edward Davies (50) and his wife Elizabeth and family in the 1841 census at Walten Mill, Worthen -  Miller.

Do you want full details?

Cheers

Hi Keith
Many thanks, this Edward Davies was the son of John Davies, Iam not sure if he took over the milling business from his father John  Davies but I beleive the family may have had a number of mills, Brockton could be another, I beleuve there were three mills on this stretch of river in the 17/1800's.
Regards, Eric.
