Notes for JAMES POWELL:

[Powell-James.FTW]

 

Father of George Edward Powell

 

BIRTH: date estimated from 1881 & 1891 Census- Llangwm -age 65/75 (b. 1816),  Birthplace is i n question.

        - Birthplace listed in 1881 Census (Llangwm) was noted as Llandenny; 1891 Census reco rds lists birthplace as Gwehelog, a locality near Llandenny.  Birthplace also listed as Usk i n 1861 Census and Llandenny in 1971 Census

 

CHRISTENING/BAPT: Baptism found in IGI search (1999) in the Bishops Transcripts for Usk, Monm outhshire           -  IGI lists christening date as 23 Jul. 1815 based on  source informatio n from Bishops Transcripts of the Usk Parish, Monmouthshre (Source Call # 0104921, Printout C all # 0883650)

 

         !!HOWEVER!! Two OTHER IGI records were also found for this same? James son of Mary a nd John Powell in Usk, Monmouth (1815) with conflicting information.  They are as follows:

      1. A record taken from the records of the Logan Temple (LDS) (sealings for the dead?) ( Film # 538218) where James' christening is recorded as 23 FEB 1815 (not 23 Jul) - father-Joh n Powell, mother-Mrs. Mary Powell

      2.  Another record taken from the records of the Manti temple (LDS) (endowments?) (Fil m # 538009, pg 149, Ref # 3060) where James' BIRTH (not Christening ) is recorded as 23 FEB 1 815 (not Jul) - father-John Powell, mother-Mary.

           There appears to be a mixup regarding months of Feb (2) and Jul (7) either in th e Temple records or in the Transcripts or the printout transcription.
