Yes, hope to find more imfo on Evan 1845/Alfred 1845/7 tommorrow, thankyou so much Margaret.

It seems neither Evan or Alfred ever marry and stay on the family farm throughout census returns. There is a death that fits the age range for Alfred Powell in 1926 aged 78, for Crickhowell. There is also a death record for an Evan Powell in 1919 aged 74 (also Crickhowell).

Interesting article about the family and local church

Len Parker married Dorothy (known as Dolly) Powell and they lived at Tyn y Llwyn, her family home, with her Uncle Evan. Len was my mother's younger brother and the dates given above look about right.
They had one daughter, Patricia, who married a local farmer; her son took over Tyn y Llwyn and Len and Doll moced to a smaller house.
Doll pre-deceased Len but they are both now buried in the graveyard of Patrishow Church, within site of the farmouse within who's grounds it stands.

Is it too late to join in this conversation about the Parkers and Tyn y Llwyn? I am a direct descendent of the Powell family ( albeit from an illegitimate son but authenticated in formal records). I visit the house regularly but will say no more until I know whether you are still "out there" as it is 12 mths since you originally posted. Where are you?
