There are a few more Pritchard families listed in Cwmyoy Upper and Lower, if you need details let me know.

Does your William Pritchard have any family connection to Llangattock Lingoed?  My ggg grandfather James Pritchard was born there in 1795.

Most grateful for your prompt reply to my look up request.

I have tried for months to find a link but without luck and I had just about given up..I am sure the links shown in the 1841 and 1851 census are connected to my family and it has given me some encouragement to continue my research

Many thanks

With regard to the Llangattock Lingoed connection I am not sure.Since the 1880s The Pritchard family were living in Abergavenny although the family grave is at St Teilos Church Llantilio Pertholy some two miles away but still only three or four from you.I will let you know if I come across a connection

Most grateful for your reply to my look up request.
I am hopeful this will give me the missing link that I have been having trouble with.
Kind regards

I also have a William PRITCHARD born Cwmyoy c 1790 who married Elizabeth [?].  She gave Abbey Dore in Herefordshire as her birthplace in the 1851 Census.  They are both buried at Grosmont.  There is an 1818 marriage of a William PRITCHARD and an Elizabeth COOKE which could be theirs.

Three of their children, according to the I.G.I., are:

- Sarah at Grosmont on 4th Feb 1827.  She married Lewis WATKINS.  Both were living with her father in 1855
- Elizabeth at Grosmont on 14th Nov 1824.  She is not mentioned in her father's will so may have died.
- Mary at Grosmont on 25th Nov 1820.  She married John CHRISTOPHER and was in Nantygloe in 1855

He was a bailiff and labourer and gave "The Birches" as an address on some of his daughters' Christenings records.

Thanks for the info.I am sure there must be some connection but at the moment I have my William Pritchard married to Margaret.They had 3 children David William and John and I believe the son William born 1835 was my GG grandfather.

I have however come to a stop as I cannot find any details of Margaret or much about William so will be off to the Records office when I have time.

Thanks again If I find anything of interest I will let you know

I absent-mindedly forgot to include another daughter of my William PRITCHARD - the reason why I was drawn to your post in the first place - my 2 x great grandmother, Margaret PRITCHARD who married William BROWN at Llanvihangel Crucorney on 2 June, 1842. 

William BROWN was then a shoemaker and later a farmer and inn keeper - first at Cwmyoy [Black Lion], next at Llangattock Lingoed [Carpenter's Arms] where he was born, and finally at The Cherry Tree Inn [half way between Llangattock Lingoed and Grosmont].

Any of your PRITCHARDs connected to the Black Lion at Cwmyoy?

It looks like your 'Margaret', being female, is not a PRITCHARD and just a coincidence.
