FROWEN / PUGH TERRETT ( transcription / name confusion) (reply)

I think we read "just co-habitating" or just living together or maybe not living together!! It seems that Esther Frowen had children with John Pugh and the children were all Frowen. I also think one of these Frowen children was born after Mr Pugh had died. Anyway, son John Frowen married Mary Terrett and had some children using the name Pugh and some using Frowen. Their son George then produced Frowen-Pugh offspring. Clear as mud?? I thought so!! It seems that the Frowen was dropped in later generations to become just plain Pugh!!! Aahh!! Family research is sooo interesting and what skeletons fall out of the closet!

I guess we have to think "step father" or " born out of wedlock" for example

I am a bit confused..How does Frowen appear ? How would he have a different surname to his dad? It does appear further down our tree.Grandmother was called Carrie Frowen Pugh c1879 until she married Joseph Clark..I appreciate the time you spent looking.Many thanks Mary

Are you referring to this family from 1881 Census:
Name Relation Marital Status Gender Age Birthplace Occupation Disability
John Wesley PUGH Head M Male 65 St Braivals, Gloucester, England Coal Miner
Mary Ann PUGH Wife M Female 63 Little Dean, Gloucester, England
Bevan PUGH Son U Male 26 Trevethin, Monmouth, England Coal Miner
Thomas PUGH Son U Male 23 Trevethin, Monmouth, England Coal Miner

Dwelling Garndiffaith
Census Place Trevethin, Monmouth, Wales
Family History Library Film 1342264

If so there is a transcription error. John Wesley PUGH should read John PUGH.
