Catherine Bowen Newport, Pembrokeshire
« on: Friday 05 June 09 12:06 UTC (UK) »

Can anybody help me find out about Catherine Bowen about b1867 and her family.  On the 1901 census her birth place was in Newport, Pembs she married Benjamin Perkins abt 1887 they lived at pennchafydre, Maenchlochog Benjamins family home for a short time which is where their first son was born Gwilym Meredith Perkins in 1888 and then they moved to Glamorgan.  Any information on Catherine Bowen would be a help as I know nothing about her family at all.

Catherine Anne, dau, 6, b. Pembrokeshire Newport

Ref no 11a  1017, Narberth Reg.

Narberth  Registration District covered Newport.

You will need these Numbers if you apply to GRO.

Or you can apply for Certs in Haverfordwest.

Thanks Omega thats absolutely lovely, I have heard Pembrokeshire is very pretty, I was actually born in Wales but am living in Western Australia which unfortunately is a bit of a trek for me now but thanks for the tip.  I think I do have an Aunt on the Thomas side of the Family who has a guest house on the water front somewhere at Tenby but have yet to find her married surname her maiden name is Doreen Thomas but thats another story.  But when I next visit I will give it a try!
