Hi All : :)

Christmas quiz,  :)   


George Edwards, Sarah Rowe,

Mar   12/ March/ 1808,  Cound, Shropshire

( am I right in thinking, that Georges dad was James, who came from uffington,)

This is really stumping me,

Many thanks S.G.D., :) :)

Its helping me go along with a hunch I have, Some other kind reader reckons that my line were " CLOSET CATHOLICS ". There was a George Edwards, who was the rector of Cound floating about at the time, also there was, the rev Sir Thomas Edwards about a few years eirlier, who used to sit on the quarterly sessions, ( Thomas and George is a family name ) , Alas having a surname Edwards in south Shropshire makes it like looking for a needle in a haysack. :( :( :(

Much thanks for the effort S.G.D. :)







( I still think its to early )

Have a happy Christmas :) :) :) :)
