Hello
Please can anyone help?
I am trying to find out more about my gt gt grandfather Edwin Richards b. circa 1851 in Gloucestershire. His family lived between Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire; he possibly had brothers Samuel & James, & sister Sarah. Their mother Mary Ann (b. 1813) came from Exeter; father James b. 1805 Mitchel troy, Cwmcarfan, Wales. ANY information at all would be great - Edwin died when my gt grandma was 5 (1892) & nobody ever talked about him or his family so we know next to nothing!
I'm also trying to find out the maiden name of Edwin's wife Catherine, b. 1852 in Oaksey Wiltshire - we were always told it was Price, but apparently not! Does anyone know how I might go about finding out what it actually was?
Thanks so much
Sara
