Peter - sorry I haven't replied earlier.

My Anne MILES is proving to be very frustrating. All that I have on her is that she married Thomas STEEL at Newland on 1st September, 1798, died at Coleford on 28th February, 1834, and is buried at Newland. She also appears in an 1830 Directory as a blacksmith in Coleford, whilst Thomas was serving six years on a prison hulk at Woolwich.
The headstone at Newland gives her age at death as 65; if that is correct she must have been born between 29th Feb. 1768 and 28th Feb. 1769.
Have you ever come across her?

Regards.....David
