I am trying to find descendants of Charles POWELL b.1850 Tugford and brother Edwards b.1834 at Cold Weston, Shropshire.
I understand that a niece and/or nephew of the above brothers moved to Staffordshire. The niece was Elizabeth b.1878 and the nephew was Thomas b.1874. Both were born at Hopton Wafers in Shropshire and were the children of John b.1845.
Also interested in descendants of
William POWELL b.1835 at Enville, Staffs. William married Anne PARSONS and had children William b.1859, Annie Eliza b. 1863 and John b.1865.
William later married COMFORT and had children Margaret b.1883 and Harry b.1885. The families lived at Much Wenlock and Billingsley in Shropshire.
Any help in tracing the above would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Hello Manchester Rambler,
Thank you for your early response to my request for Powell descendants. Since receiving your reply I have been trying to thank you but, due to my inexperience and the fact that my computer is 'playing up' I have not had any luck. I am now trying this avenue to contact you and I hope this works.
The information asked for was on behalf of my friend, Eileen, who is researching her husband's maternal side of the family. She is very pleased with your response and wants to know if YOU are connected to the Powell family.
I did explain to her that the people who reply to Roots Chat queries are people who have a lot of information at their fingertips and are happy to pass this on to those asking.
I originally placed the request on the Staffordshire site but the Moderator moved it but said there were still links on that site. However, I have not yet been able to find any reference on Staffordshire page. I thought I had this Roots Chat system sorted but each time I hit on snags...
Once again many thanks for your response which is very much appreciated.
Stringfellow.

Hello Rambler,
I'm so pleased to have made contact at last. Thank you again. I never cease to be amazed at the information some people can obtain from this modern technology. Eileen will be sorry that you have no family connection but she is delighted to have had such a helpful response.
I wonder if you could perhaps point me in the right direction of where to look for another person? We have only his name and was last heard of in Scotland. I have tried 192.com but didn't get anywhere. I was just about to try the Scottish Roots Chat when I picked up your reply.
Regards
Stringfellow

For Scottish info, I'd ask on the Scotland board - I'm afraid my research is all England/Wales, and you probably need someone with access to the Scottish People website.
