I am a new lister and hail from Melbourne Australia. I am currently researching my great grandmothers family in Hereford and Shropshire.

William MORRIS b 1815 in Pencombe to John MORRIS and Ann ?, marries Elizabeth BERRY born c1817 in Moccas. Children Eliza, Mira, George (b 1845 in Orleton) ,
George MORRIS marries Emma DOWNS born 1845 in Eye. Possible birth to a Hannah Downs.

Children: most married in Sandbach area of Cheshire.
Emily b Oct 1872 d 1901 Sandbach, married William John HICKSON. (my line)
Elizabeth b 1874 (possible marriage to a RIDGEWAY)
William b 1876 ??????
Annie b 1880 ? possible marriage to a William COOPER in Sandbach.
E J (ARCHER)- female present at death of mother, listed as daughter. Living at 1 Warton, Wroxeterm Shrewsbury in April 1917.

Almost no living descendents on the HICKSON line, most had no children.
Lots unknown on the MORRIS line. They seem to have returned to Hereford after 1891. Buried in Hereford. Lived in Castle Richard.

Have burial locations some with headstones if anyone is visiting RICHARDS CASTLE or HEREFORD CEMETERY.

Would love some help finding E J ARCHER or family.

I am 47 and the oldest alive on my line.
