Is anyone connected to George Pryce born about 1856 father WilliamPryce and Margaret A stley father Richard Astley they married in 1877 in llanwnog . Vicki

Pryce,
I don't know whether or not you have any census information for your PRYCE/ASTLEY families, but in 1861 I have found the following:-
RG9/4247, folio 75, page 1 - Wtragau in the Parish of Llanwnog, Township of Uwchllawrcoed
Richard Astley Head 49 Farmer of 8 acres
Jane Astley Wife 40 Farmer's Wife
Jane Astley Daughter 10
Margaret Astley Daughter 3
Ann Astley Daughter 3 months
All were born in MGY Llanwnog.
I have looked for George Pryce with father William and found nothing, although the family listed below may be a possibilty ??? ??? Spelt Price.
RG9/1841, folio 77 page 49 - Snead Cottage, Parish of Snead Montgomeryshire
William Pice Head 44 Ag Lab
Ann Price Wife 40
Ann Price Daughter 12 Scholar
George Price Son 9 Scholar
William was born in MGY Kerry, Ann & daughter Ann were both born in SAL Chirbury, and George was born in MGY Snead.

Hi Vicki
Glad that I could be of some help.
I have hundreds of JONES in my tree but the majority of them are from Llanidloes, and no connection to yours I'm sorry to say.
Is there a slight possibility that the George Price that I found for you in 1861 could be yours? Just because the surname is spelt differently doesn't mean that you should rule him out. Quite often enumerators made many mistakes when taking down the family details - I'm sure I would spell Price with an "I", unless someone corrected me!!!!
Do you know where George was born?

Hi Jan thanks fro the email , yes it may well be George Price i am going to send for the cert because every one spells my last name with a i , best wishes Vicki

Hi Vicki, I have left messages for you on a number of other Genealogy sites as I have a MARTHA PRYCE in my familytree dated 1861 Census married to Henry BEDDOW, it says she was from Berris, her mother Ann PRYCE was from Chesbury or Chetbury and she also had a niece called Charlotte Rowland from Llantoham.
Any link to your past requests?

Hi John sorry i have not replyed i have been very busy and have not checked my emails .i do not know at this stage if martha is connected . i have been trying to find george pryces born about 1852 birth h is father willam Pryce but with no luck . who was Marthas father that may help . Vicki
-
Hi Vicki, only know marthas surname because her mother and niece Charlotte were in the house when the 1861 census was recorded.
She is recorded as coming from Berris but I believe that this is a spelling mistake.
Good luck with the search
John
