Researching:
Matthew and Jane Elwood who had my great great grandfather Francis Edward Elwood baptised in 1807 at Horsham Sussex. There is no sign of Matthew or Jane from this date and my great great grandfather was brought up as Francis Edward Elwood MITCHELL

Family story is he came from North Wales at the age of 12 years.

Him or his father had a sister named Margaret and a brother named Richard who went to Canada.
He might have come from Towin in North Wales
