Does anyone have this name in their tree? My great aunt married James COUSINS.

I thought I had replied to you but there seems no message! The BARRAHs are in Hubberston and the COUSINS are in Freystrop - any good?

I believe all the Barrahs are related- I have connections in many generations and also direct descent through my gggrandmother Alice Barrah of Freystop.

Alice's father John Barrah married a Rachel Cousins in Freystrop early 1800. Rachel died and then John married Sarah Rees of Freystrop. Alice was born about 1826

Thank you for your reply. Apologies for not answering you before now.

I hadn't realized that the BARRAHs and COUSINs were related so thank you for that. It might even help in my quest in finding the connection between the GRUNNAHs of Freystrop and those of Hubberston. You just never know.

I have just "discovered" that the Rev. James Hughes Thomas and his first wife Martha had the name Cousens in three of their children:
Joseph Couzens Thomas b 8/3/1816 Moleston, but he says Slebech; Alfred Couzens Thomas bp 17/7/1822 Moleston; and Eliza Couzens Thomas bp 14/5/1827 Narberth.

Is this of any help to you?
