Powell Family, Lydney - Lost after 1861
« on: Monday 30 June 14 11:16 BST (UK) »
Can anyone find this family after 1861?

John Powell, born about 1827 in Lydney and his wife Martha born about 1821 in Williton, Somerset

children with them up to 1861 are:

Sarah Jane (1846)
Amelia (1848)
John Worthington (1849) - known as Worthington
Maria (1851)
Mary (1854)
Thomas (1857)
William (1860)

all the children were born in Lydney and last trace of them together is at RG9 3978 60 10

Thanks

Marriages for a Sarah Jane Powell to John Corkhill and "Emelia" to James Mitchell both 1864 (Amelia would only have been 16 though).

Death for a Martha Powell aged 73 in 1895.
