I am related to this John Povah.  his first wife was Est(h)er Rogers, they married in Ruabon 11th Sep 1820. She died in 1832. They had Samuel, Robert, Ann and Elizabeth. he then married Jane Graham on 12 dec 1836 in St Nicholas Liverpool. They had Wiliam, mary Jane, Margaret, Sarah and John. Jane was from Dumfries, Scotland and John Povah snr and Est(h)er were from Wrexham.  I am assuming that Esther was not of full age when she married, hence the marriage at Ruabon, which is near to wrexham. (she would have been 17ys - is this too young to be married without consent?)  I have much more on the Povah line.  Samuel Povah is my GGG Grandfather.
I am sorry but my emails are not working

Hi
 Do you know if John is into family history, if so ask him to get in touch, i am researching Povah from Wrexham, Liverpool, and the Manchester, Salford area.
        Thanks for your help

Anyone looking for Povah, and variations, in Denbighshire/Flintshire might like to check out my free website  www.namesfromclwyd.org.uk .    Rightly or wrongly I have included the entries under Peover.   Best of luck.
