That looks good. I hadn’t gone back with the family so Dorcas is new. Looks as though she went before the others then.

1900

Looks as though there is a son  ??? Powell. There is a published tree with photos. On the tree he is named as Louis C Littlejohn but this 1900 census shows him as Powell.

Scroll down - number 1399 for Dorcas

This is after her marriage but I wonder if it means Thomas Powell is a member of the Union Church, Newport or Dorcas was previously :-\
