> Hi List,
>
> I have a Jane Powell dangling from one of my tree branches, born about
> 1862 in Ebbw Vale. Parents: Henry Powell & Ann Lewis. Henry is the
> brother of my direct ancestor, Thomas Elijah Powell. Jane Powell married
> a William Chadwick in Newport Mon, March qtr. 1886. Jane Chadwick appears
> in 1891 with three children living with her parents in Newport.
>
> I did a search for William Chadwick on the LDS site and got some
> interesting information. There was a William Chadwick executed April 15,
> 1890 at Newgate Prison for the murder of one Walter Davies.
>
> Of course, I don't know whether this fellow was the husband of Jane
> Chadwick nee Powell, but the dates fit. Jane & William were married 1886.
> Their children were born 1887, 1889 and late 1890 or early 1891 (baby only
> few months old on census). I haven't had any luck finding Janet & William
> Chadwick in any of the later census.
>
> My question - how can I find out if this William Chadwick who was executed
> at Newgate Prison in 1890 was the husband of Jane Powell?
>
> Thanks.
