Hello, I am trying to trace back an Emma Powell. She married a John Beamish at St. Mary's-On-The-Hill, Chester on 24 December 1826. They moved to Ruabon, Wrexham area and eventually emigrated to Pennsylvania, USA around 1839. On the USA censuses her year of birth is given around 1805.
I've done a DNA test on Ancestry and I have several DNA cousins with a not so far documented connection to Emma, and I myself am a Powell. My own Powell's go back to 1805 in Flintshire, Wales where I've then got a brick wall. I'm hoping finding out where Emma was from, might help me to trace my own line back.
Many thanks
