Hi Ian,
I have checked the whole of the 1841 census for Radnorshire and this is the
only entry for Moseley and variations. Please note that the ages of adults
are rounded down to 0 and 5. The "Y" stands for "Yes" meaning that the
person was born in the County of Radnorshire.
Regards,

Dear Listers
The IGI assumes patronymic surnames for baptisms up to December 1812. From
January 1813 baptisms were recorded on a form with a clear "surname" column,
and the IGI uses that. From that date onwards it's much easier to use!!
(see the very helpful chapter on the IGI in Wales in "Welsh Family History -
A Guide to Research" ed. Rowlands.)

Hello Mair,
This may confuse the issue even more or maybe even help to solve the
puzzle.
My 2x great grandfather ,John Jones b Clyro 1787 had a sister Sarah Jones
b 1789 who married Evan Pugh in Clyro in 1815. I have no children for them
yet. I would think there is a good chance Evan`s maternal line might be
Evans if you see what I mean.
What do you think?
regards Jill.

Hello All,
Can SKS please do a search of 1841 and 1851 census for Moseley, Mosely,
Mosley in the Llandewi Ystradenny / Llananno / Ithon Valley / areas. As far
as I can find out there is only one family of Moseley's in Radnorshire, in
the 1770's untill 1890's and they were farmers.
I have searched 1881 and 1901. The trouble is they moved to Radorshire
sometime in the 1700's but am unsure when.
This is some information about them;

Hi All I'm back on the list again trying to find my Stonehewers!
John Stonhewer born ca. 1792 in Carmarthen married an Ann from Battle. But I can't find the marriage. I have been in contact with other people researching Stonehewers and they have seen the name written as Stone, Stonuary, Stonehouse, and lots more.
I was wondering if somebody could look for a marriage (including variations), the earliest child was born in 1819. Although I do also have another (very Iffy) child called Anne Stone King who

Hi Leslie
When you come to England in the summer (& Wales especially) the first thing
you will notice is how green it is. And why is it so green? Because of
the rainfall. Its even greener in Ireland!
But in between the showers, the sun will shine and the countryside will look
magical.
Are you looking for Breeses in Llanbrynmair?
Have a great trip!

Unfortunately, not the Breeses family. I will be staying with John Morgan
"Caetwpa", we are related through the late John Hughes (1794-1840),
"Cwmcarnedu-uchaf". I hope to find for more information about the Richard

Hi Tony and All,
List of the Francis engineers -
James Francis 1738-1813, agent of Wheal Fortune, Breage.
Henry Francis 1762- 1833, born at Gwennaap, married Mary Davey, whose
brother John Davey worked many mines, including Herland and Alfred.
William Francis, 1777-1830, was in Tipperary silver mines, then managed
Great Consolidated mines with Capt William Davey for Taylors.
Henry Francis, 1784-1853, was with his uncle Capt John Davey, and Nicholas
Trevithick, then at Wheal neptune and other
In the 1901 Census my great Uncle and Auntie Edward & Alathea Pugh are listed with their children Alathea aged 4 and John aged 1. He was farmer in the Old Radnor & Burlingjobb Parish of Radnorshire. My mother has told me that they had 7 children and she spent some holidays with them at Treverward near Knighton in the 1920s.
I wonder if anyone knows anything else about this family since 1901 ?
Thanks for any help given.
Best Wishes,

Hi Tony,
Thomas Bound's book is a compilation of reminiscences handed down from generation to generation in the community of Old Hall. He points out that it is not an in depth historical record but anecdotes and personal experiences. It is of special interest to me as my father John Bound, a first cousin to Thomas was born at Llynderw Farm, Old Hall. My great grandfather David Bound was living there when he married Julia Hamer of Penybank, Llanidloes in 1869. The Bound family had moved from Llangurig a
Hello Dennis.
Many thanks for taking the trouble to look at the b/b/ cd for me
the only other data I have on EVAN RICHARD HUGHES 1761 was that his
occupation was a sawyer, and he died age 74 at Tanygraig Llangadfan .he was
married to a ELIZABETH nee DAVIES possibly from Moelfeliarth on the
23-7-1784 she would have been born approx 1764 presuming she was about 20
when she married, I think that her father was an inn keeper at Tynylan
Llangadfan.

Hi Marian,
I think he would have got to London Via Cardiff or Newport by rail then, and
perhaps by road to Cardiff.
When I worked in London Millbank ten years ago I saw a plaque near Vauxhall
Bridge re Convicts who were sent by ship from there to OZ in the 1800's. Two
lads named Bound I am aware of were sent to OZ after 1881, as they appeared
on the UK census then. One came back here 7 years later. When did it all
end?
I have no Brecon records that can help you in this. But I also know of others
Dear List,
Below is a query I received today from Margaret Ashby. I was able to locate
some of the individuals she mentioned in the 1881 Census Index but have no
pertinent details on the PARTRIDGE family who ultimately farmed at

I wonder if anyone knows anything else about this family since 1901 ?

I am trying to find what happened to my great uncle William John Turner.
He was born in 1884 at the Halfway House pub in the Westbury/Alberbury area.
I have found him on the 1901 census living with his family in Trewern near Buttington, Montgomeryshire.
Then he disapeared.
My mother ,who is nearly 80, remembers all her uncles & aunts but has never heard of this one.
My great grandparents brought up an illigitimate child called Chris Russell and we think William may have been the father and after the child

Dear Fred,
The Struet is in the parish of St John the Evangelist, Brecon, so if

However, if they were nonconformists, they could have been baptised in
