James Powell
- Born: 1848, Ewyas Harold, Herefordshire
Notes:
1851 Census; Living (age 3? or 8?) as son (but is grandson) at Dog Farm, Ewyas Harold, Herefordshire with parents, grandfather and 2 farm servants. Occupation; Scholar (so perhaps is 8 not 3 ?).
1861 Census; Possibly he is; Living (aged 13) at New xxxx Road, Kingstone, Herefordshire. Is apprentice to a James Symonds (Tailor). PoB: EHarold.
1871 Census; Possibly he is; Living as lodger (aged 23) at Wednesbury, Staffs at the house of George Wood. Occupation; Tailor. PoB is just Herefordshire.
Can't really find in '81 or '91 - few possibles but not born in EH and not tailors or similar.
Then in 1901 there is a James Powell, single, 50, born in Clodock working as farm labourer at Upper Cwm Farm, Llanveynoe !! - ie close to where his cousin George Powell (b1833) farmed at Lower Cwm. Coincidence ??
