hello i am looking for any information on john powell i believe he married martha and had 7 children but i can not find any information on his parents or his wifes maiden name and parents thanks for any help you can give me

Is this them in 1891?
John Powell 37
Martha Powell 36
Hannah Powell 15
David Powell 13
Elizabeth Powell 11
Charlotte Powell 8
Thomas Powell 6
Blodwen Powell 10/12
John is born c 1854 Blaenavon, Monmouthshire
Do you have a Childs Birth Cert to establish Marthas maiden name?
David 1878 is born in Beaufort, Breconshire
This is them in 1881;
John Powell 27
Martha Powell 26
Hannah Powell 6
David J. Powell 3
Elizebeth E. Powell 1
Marriage therefore should be between 1883-1885
Unfortunately there are several possibilities so you need a Childs Birth Cert :)
