Kia ora
I see I spelt it wrong in the subject line it should be Rowbathon.
Thanks for the details about the Earl of Powys. I see there are a few different meanings for a yeoman, a land owner?
See attached I thought these were the banns for them?
So just checking a few details, when you say 'same parish' does that refer to those below: Sarah, John and another Sarah? Was Edward born in Bishop's castle? Both parents were buried in Edgton?
Many thanks for all your help, nga mihi nui
