Managed to visit Erbistock Churchyard yesterday and found the gravestone for Catherine Gell plus some of her children. It was worn but still legible so I took photos. One of the names is a son Richard Garbett Gell who was the son from his first marriage. This has meant I could find his first marriage to Jane Garbett in St. Mary's Shrewsbury in 1812.

She must have died before his second marriage in 1820 but not found where yet.

Erbistock Churchyard must be one of the most tranquil spots to be buried anywhere in that part of N Wales.

Thanks again for the help which meant that there was an earlier marriage to look for
