I am researching the Frere family who came from Ross and Walford.
Barrow Frere b1788 at Ross farmed at Walford. He and his wife Elizabeth
had the following children all born at Walford:-
Eleanor b1816, Ann Dowell b1818, Barrow b1820, Elizabeth b1823, Mary Caroline b1824
Charlotte Sophia b1826, Caroline b1831.
In 1841 Barrow (senior) was in America with his brothers Charles 1787-1859 and
James b1783.
I am unable to find any more details than those outlined above except that
Ann Dowell married William Trouncer in 1847 in Ross and that they lived in Shropshire in the 1851 census.
Can anyone help?
Thanks, Peter.

Hi m p,
Many thanks for your reply re Barrow Frere.
It seems that he, his wife and all their
children sailed to New York from Bristol
on the "George Canning" in August 1832.

Hi, Does anyone know where the land was in Walford that Barrow Frere farmed/ had tenancy of? The only tithe map - which might have helped I can find is 1840 and I am looking at around 1815. I'm looking into the history of Walford House where i live in one of the apartments and I have found a description of what sounds very like it as a new property on the land that Barrow Frere is tenent of. Can any one help?

Is this the description you refer to? At the moment I can’t find any reference to this property on old maps.
BNA Hereford Journal - Wednesday 30 August 1815
