Wow, Slowhands your amazing. I didn't expect to get so much information. I am extremely grateful, but now my head is buzzing with another new set of questions. How can I find out siblings for Elizabeth and Thomas? When I was searching originally I did find a John Bevan also living at Westbury on Severn and born according to the census in Futire...could he be a brother to Thomas. I have looked on Ancestry.com and can find 1851 census for possibly Thomas's father Thomas, but there is no wife for me to make the connection.
Well thanks again for your help.
