Title: Powell - family from Shropshire- Help needed
Post by: sashadelenn on Tuesday 26 September 17 11:56 BST (UK)

Hi, I am doing research on my Powell side of the family. My Great grandmothers father was Henry Powell b. 8th Feb. 1821 in Ludlow, he was married to Mary Ann Smith, b. 29 Jul. 1829, Surrey, Chertsey.  Henry Powells father was called Edward b. 1778 in Ludlow too. He was married to Elizabeth Langslow b. 1780, I think by Hereford. I am looking for other ancestors to this tree, and if there is someone that could help me with researching in England, as I live in Norway. I believe Edward Powell`s father was called Samuel, and was married to Mary Milman, but this is unsure. Is there anybody that could help me?

The only Edward Powell I can find baptised in Ludlow with father Samuel was baptised 3 June 1762. Mother was Elizabeth.

Ludlow Parish Registers are availble on findmypast. If you don't subscribe try www.archive.org for the transcription.
