Hi..
I am confused re my 4th G Grandfather THOMAS BOWEN 1782 - 1861 Born in Bromyard, Herefordshire. I have found a marriage to SARAH DERRY 1778 - on 13th June 1814. This same Sarah is documented on the census for 1841 as Thomas Bowen's wife.
However, in the 1851 census, Sarah's birth year is given as 1818 There is a 10 month old infant listed on this census.
I assume that Sarah DERRY passed away between the census years and Thomas remarried. I have found a marriage for Thomas and SARAH BAKER 12th Feb 1850.
My problem is that I cannot find a death for Sarah DERRY!
Thank you in anticipation!!
Ruth
