Thomas Howells(died 1813 was ca. 76 years old) when your Wm.Howell was born. The best fits of yours in Defynog registers would be-
William s/o Howell & Barbara Powell
(rec.41.173, he a cooper) chr. Oct. 4, 1812.
or
William s/o Thomas Powell & Mary, chr. S.25,1806.
In my opinion the best bet would be he chr. Oct.4,1812.
Does the old part of "Birchgrove" have small windows, walls mostly rubble built(maybe rendered now)& a roof much stepper than the newer part?
I have one a recon.(not finished) of Thomas Williams ="your" Gwenllian James, lived at Llanigon '51-'61.
Thank you for the possible offer of help but what do you have in mind as available.

Will look up the photo of the house I will and get back to you.
hav'nt got much really just a few certificates of family in Brecon and a few that were not family, ordered by mistake that might be of use.
A few of John Havard & Mary Willams  of Silver Street and their children.
Also piece of Peggi o San (margaret Howells nee james) written in Welsh that I borrowed from Welsh Library.

Roof is not steeper but the floor is very much deeper and makes additional part of house great deal taller than the first. Is made up of stone but now rendered on 3 side dates on house 1773 1888.
