Hello,
This is the first time i have posted on Rootschat, hope i have this correct.
My 3 X Great Granfather was Henry Powell.  In the 1851, 1861 & 1871 census, he farmed Priors Court Farm, Alyton, nr Ledbury.  The farm was 164 acres.  Was this farm, attached to Priors Court.  If anyone has any information about this farm or family, I would be grateful.
Kind regards
Max

I am sorry to tell you that there are 2 Priors Courts and the one you are after is not the one I live in. The other Priors Court is at Aylton - just beware of spelling.

Best wishes on your search

Peter

Hello Whit,

I went to visit Ledbury in Sept 2009 searching for my family at  Priors Court.  I actually went to the Aylton, Priors Court to meet the owners but they were not home at the time of my visit.

Do you have any leads in regards to your family and Priors Court yet?

I don't have any real information about the Priors Court farm, but I do have a photo.

The farm appears to have been subdivided and there are now another 2 or 3 homes nearby the original home.
