I am trying to find any trace of Agnes Harrison b.Kington Herefordshire 1846 and her sister Prudence Harrison b. Kington Herefordshire 1858. They are listed as 'Housekeeper' and 'Servant' in 1871 to Dr John Kenyon at Broad Street, New Radnor. In 1873 Prudence,(aged around 15) gave birth to Arthur Harrison b. Kington. It is assumed that he was the son of John Edward Kenyon b 1846 at Hooton Pagnell, Dr John Kenyon's son. The Dr paid for Arthur's Grammar School fees at Kington. John Edward also became a doctor. There were many Harrisons in the Kington area at this period, none now seem to remain. They were mainly metal workers anyone any clues?
