Edited to correct name to Ellen

Thanks Susan, but it's actually ELLEN Mound  although that info might be useful if we find a relative called Emma. I seem to remember I saw a Eleanor Mound or Morris somewhere, maybe Ellen was just the short name she used. Any marriage between Samuel Cartwright Morris and Eleanor?

Thanks!

Oops...  my mistake      Have amended my post to read Ellen as per the original census

Free BMD has the marriage

Hello
I would be interested to know why this post has had so many views and replies when other similar ones get few or even no replies at all.

Perhaps because the original post was a more general enquiry than some others, or perhaps the information was more readily available than for some other enquiries.

I agree with Spidermonkey, but would like to add that I would have not got this far without her (and other users') VALUABLE help and guidance.

Thanks!

Hi all! I'm planning to go to England in September, to carry out some research in Colwall and Almeley principally. Does anyone have an e-mail address of either place's town hall/parish church or other to contact someone from there, so we can arrange an appointment beforehand?

Hello

Suggest the Tourist Information Offices would point you in the right direction.
Malvern for Colwall
Kington or Hereford for Almeley.
