Hi, I'm trying to find anyone who has connections with the following family
George Davies c 1836 Welshpool (son of Richard and Elizabeth Davies)
married to Margaret Alder c 1842 of Alnwick, Northumberland.
Children:
Elizabeth c 1861
Fanny c1863 (believed to have connections with the Pugh Garage in Montgomery, but have not made contact with them as yet)
Richard c1866
John c1869
Mary Ann b1872 married John Davies, lived in Ruyton XI Towns until they both died in the 1960's. (my family line)
Anne c1876 married James Henry Bray
Charlotte c1879 (Imbecile at Forden workhouse 1911 census)
William c1881
Thomas c1885
Rachel b.21/9/1886 Crown Court, Montgomery (birth certificate confirms this) 1901 census shows she is living with her sister Anne and brother-in-law James Henry Bray at Altrincham RG13/3321 and 1911 census she is living with her other sister Mary Ann and her husband John Davies at The Fields, Ruyton XI Towns, Shropshire RG14/6196
All children were born in Montgomery town.

CENSUS
1871 Kerry Road, Montgomery RG10/5619, PG 33
1881 Crown Square, Montgomery RG11/5489, PG22
1891 Margaret and the family living at Conference Hall Cottage No 2 with her children, she is separated from George but not divorced. RG12/4595, PG12
1901 George and the family living at 6 Plough Terrace, Margaret is deceased as George is widowed. RG13/5198 PG10

I believe both George and Margaret are both buried at St. Nicholas Graveyard, but yet need to confirm. George must have died between 1901 and 1911 and Margaret passed away between 1891 and 1901.

Any help or if anyone thinks they are connected to the above family, I would love to hear from you
