Bumford Family
« on: Tuesday 24 August 21 10:17 BST (UK) »
Request any information on the parents and/or siblings of Bowen Bumford born around 1816 in Trefeglwys.   He married Elizabeth Morris of Llanwnog around 1836 and subsequently lived there with his family.   Thanks Dave

Can't see an 1836 marriage to a Morris but there are these earlier marriages:

31 Aug 1811 at Llanwnnog: Bowen Bumford, bachelor, and Elizabeth Powel, spinster. Witnesses John Powell and Evan Morgan.

3 June 1831 at Carno: Bowen Bumford, widower of Llanwnnog, and Elizabeth Roberts, spinster. Witnesses John Thomas and John Wilson.
