Post by: jem tudor edwards on Sunday 16 September 12 22:54 BST (UK)
I'm searching for more info on my father's side of the Edwards family from Norton, Radnorshire. James M Diana (no surname) who died 4/2/1898 aged 96 b. 1802=died at Norton, Cook's House (built 1667). William Edwards b.1831 at Norton Radnorshire ( baptised 29/5/1831) married Mary Wheeler at Amestry Hereford died 1918 aged 87 in Hereford I think they had 5 sons the eldest of which was William Edwards b. 18/8/1852 d. 29/1/1953 aged 100 from Norton Radnorshire( my Great Great Grandfather) M.Sarah Jane Hopkins 21/1/1846 (a Christchurch family)(my father has the Hopkins family bible earliest name John Hopkins b.29/9/1811). Would love to know who other brothers of Great great grandfather were and who James Edwards b.1799 mother and father were.
regards
Jem

HO107 1457 3 6
1851 Josiah 10, George 6, Septimus 4, Margaret 3 all b Norton
HO107 2492 467 24

1861
Joseph age 20(think this is Josiah from 1851) b. Norton, Margaret 13 (described as "Granddaughter" in this census) b.Norton, Edward 8 b.Presteigne

Edward and Dianna although they lived in Norton Village did not give p.o.b. as Norton in any census
