BURIAL PLACE of JOHN and MARGARET POWELL
« on: Tuesday 03 April 12 10:39 BST (UK) »
 Hello,
Can anyone help me to find the death of Margaret Powell.?
She was born in the Kerry area 1809( maiden name Brown) and married John Powell in Kerry in 1828.
In their later years they lived at Nantyrhunnau farm, near the Anchor, Kerry and I think Margaret may have died there sometime after 1891. I have a Will for Husband John, but no burial place . Where is the most likely burial place for this remote spot? Could they be buried in Beguildy in Radnorshire which is near by or would it have to be Montgomeryshire?
 I should like to find out WHEN  Margaret died and WHERE  the couple are buried.  Any help or ideas would be great.
THANKS  Jan.

Hi Cardiff and KGarrad,
Thank you for both sets of information. Yes , I think the entry for the death is probably correct, so now I just have to find where the couple were buried. Perhaps the suggested  Website may be able to point me in the right direction!
Many Thanks again for your replies

The National Library of Wales in Aberystwyth is the place to go for all the Welsh records, such an amazing place!
