Thanks again Marilyn

your reply;
Have sent to Kath some information off Public Members Tree on Ancestry - as John BELLAMY & Mary (nee BROWNING) - marriage on FOD records - Mary BELLAMY (Widow) married Samuel BULLOCK - at W on S - 8 April 1828 -
This in turn followed on to the 1861 census at Newnham, when Lumber Farm was being run by Richard FREAM and his housekeeper was Amelia COWMEADOW - Next door but one is Mary BULLOCK (BELLAMY) nee BROWNING.
So these families are very inter-linked - even back to the surname COWMEADOW again.

leads me to agree whole heartedly with the inter-linking puzzle.

Somehow I've missed the proximity of Mary BROWNING BELLAMY BULLOCK abode to the LUMBAR FARM of Richard FRAME. Will you explain that again to me please? My mind is nowhere near as sharp as yours.

Re JOHN PALMER'S will 1812; how does one equate 150 pounds with today's money?

He left 150 pounds to each of 6 of his children = 900 pounds plus 3 farms to his son John so I suspect he wasn't badly off.

So, his wife Mary nee BELLAMY would have been a well off widow when she remarried to Edward FRAMES IN 1814.

I've been searching for her will for 1815 when she died to no avail. Maybe I should have looked at other years - just dawned on me! Can one get wills emailed from glosarchives?

Her place of death at GROVE in Flaxley Parish is brilliant. Thanks to all
