John Preece of Drybrook (General)

by Peter Preece @, Monday, January 03, 2011, 16:40 (5080 days ago)

My Grandfather was John Preece 1867-1943 married to Amelia Ann Welch 1871-1930 who was the daughter of Mary Ann Welch (nee Cowmeadow) and Joseph Welch. My Great Grandfather was Edward Preece 1840-1904 married in 1862, at Cinderford, to Mary Ann Bailey 1847 Birmingham - 1895 Drybrook.

I believe that that Robert Preece who married Susannah Bailey at Ruardean in 1831 are my X2 Great Grandparents.

I also understand that Mary Ann Bailey was the illegitimate daughter of Phoebe Bayley (change of spelling) who married George Hodges at Ross Register Office in 1850.

Can anyone confirm these details and, hopefully, add more?
