Hello everyone, i was wondering if anyone might able to assist me going backwards with my ancestor Titus Powell,
Titus was born C.1815 Location Unknown, he married Jane Rees (Widowed, Maiden Name Layent?) in Llanhilleth on the 15th Dec 1839
At some stage they settled in the Garndiffiath/Abersychan Area and had
James 1840-1893 Married Mary Dowding
Joseph 1842-? Possible marriage for 1866 in pontypool but cant find the name of who he married
Caroline 1845-1925 married George S Britton Moved to Allegheny, Pennsylvania
Two children were born before marriage, not sure if their from janes first marriage to evan rees
William C.1837
And Ann C.1835
Titus’s Father is given as William Powell on Marriage Reg,
Jane’s is William Lyent,
I’m hoping to find Titus’s Heritage and what happened to William, Ann and Joseph
Thanks!
Ashton

You seem to contradict yourself. I refer you to your opening post --

TITUS Powell Baptism 26 November 1817, Walford, Herefordshire
Parents WILLIAM/ELIZABETH
Siblings;
Hannah 1820, buried 5 April 1822
Ann 1822, buried 1 May 1822
I see he was buried 10 Jan 1846 Abersychan age 31
1841 has a William Powell born c 1791 living in Allensmore, Herefordshire.
Wife Elizabeth, occp Ag Lab
1851 he is born c 1789 Madley, Herefordshire
Baptism above looks likely for Titus.
Not sure about Census for that William/Elizabeth as his parents though.
Unable to find Titus/Jane in 1841 Census.

Also the 1866 marriage for Joseph Powell who married Hannah Jones is not your man, as marriage names his father as Joseph Powell, occ. Coker
