Morgan - Coleford
« on: Saturday 04 November 06 08:41 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
As part of my Family History Iam researching a branch of the Morgan family, they are:
Henry Morgan born 1822 Coleford. Father James, mother Anne Wood.
Henry married Maria Hamblin in 1840 and went on to have up to nine children, the eldest, Moses, being my g g grandfather.
Moses was born in 1843 and he married Eliza (Lewis?) in 1864 in Cinderford.
The family moved to Durham during the 1870's where one of their youngest children, John, was born in 1884, he is my g grandfather.
Does this family seem familiar to anyone.  I would love anymore information on them.
Thankyou
Sue
