The Death Certificate may be interesting.

They could easily have been working in those Parishes but they are all very close.

I came across a Price family in Orleton a while ago. I thought they might have been some of mine but they weren't. I can't remember forenames.
Also found Vales in Richards Castle in the 1861 Census. There's a Louisa on that born c.1854. Is she one of yours?

There's some connection between my Price/Watkins lot from Canon Pyon, Burghill, Wellington and the Vales. I still haven't found it.

I havent read the whole thread through, but just have a couple of comments on poiunts in your last post.
1) If the parents were non conformists they wouldnt necessarily have the child christened. Unlikely in this case as you have found that the siblings were, but possible that they went through a phase of attending chapel, and that was at the time of George's birth
2) More likely, I think your clue is in the fact that at Sarah's christeneing there is the mention that the child waas born one place, but dad was hired out as a grdener elsewhere at the time. It seems likely that, if this was the nature of dads work, that he could have been hired somewhere other than Kinnerlsey or Shobden at the time of George's chrisitening and therefore it is in a parish other than those two, but probably within the area.
Have you checked all neighbouring parishes?

Grandad George on a Sunbeam
|
Hi lizdb,
Thank you for mentioning that, as I hadn't even thought about chapel! What I can't understand is that my granddad was a God fearing by the book sort of man. All the family had some sort of connection of working for all the local churches. They did attend chapel but they also went to church too. Granddad was a bell ringer for many years. So it doesn't make sense that his dad wasn't baptised at all.
I have checked the births in Letton and Staunton-On-Wye but no sign of George Henry there. There are probably hundreds of hamlets and villages between Kinnersley and Shobdon but I will keep searching. I just wish the surname had been unusual, if only to be more confident of my findings and to rule out sheer coincidence.
Using Genuki I found an extract from the 1876-7 Littlebury's Directory and Gazetteer of Herefordshire where in the commercial section a Price Jas? (James?) is listed as head gardener for T. Reavely, Esq., J.P., D.L. (Kinnersley castle), Hurstley. I'm wondering if that's my great great granddad James and if so how much of his working life did he spend at Kinnersley castle?
http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/HEF/Letton/Littlebury1876.html
That's my only clue so far, if indeed it is one, of where James may possibly have worked as a gardener.
Best wishes,
Bosuns Call

Kinnersley Castle is still a private house and there may be records of former staff there. Worth asking perhaps ?
